    About this ebook

    River or canal, ‘Captain Tripsy’ needs all his wits about him to cope with the trials and tribulations on his first boating trip.
    For example:
    What is the ‘key’ to using a canal lock?
    How do you cope with a fellow skipper who delights in ‘winding’ you up?
    Can a boat go through the air?
    Is a river ‘Bore,‘ a good thing?
    Who is the mystery girl in Dywoman Tunnel?
