Are they supposed to be this small? The model, I mean. Does the driver even fit in that hut?

Thanks for the update!

P.S. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZEX8Z4Sxas - two girls and ~15-20 ton boat :)

None of the boats can load vehicles or containers, I didn't feel like that was realistic or necessary (You can probably afford better boats if you have a container loading facility or car factory). I think I got the kw from some documentation on narrowboat engines, and the speed from the speed limit on British Canals. But for game reasons I agree they're too slow to be useful, so I'll increase the speed to 10kts.

P.S. I imagined narrowboat for one 40-feet container...but unfortunately container is wider (243 cm vs 208)

Ok, I read about narrowboats, then about English canal system - now "Three Men in a Boat" will never be same for me :) it's cool!

But please reduce power or increase speed - water on low speed is VERY energy cheap, you can have ~3 km/h using just two human, not even horses - look Holland-1931 photo https://en.topwar.ru/176101-burlaki-rossii-i-evropy.html

I recommend change: 2 kw - 3 knots (for two horses) or/and 10 kw - 7-10 knots

They are so cute! Also, they are one of the *very* few boats that work with Mauser Nato's tiny cargo dock.
