Get your paddleboard, kayak or inflatables up and running with the most efficient SUP hand pump on the market. This high pressure/high capacity, dual action hand pump with an inflate and deflate capability makes a huge difference to getting your boards inflated quickly and easily. You can switch between a single or dual action with the flick of a lever and supercharge your pump output to get in the water faster. As Jack Parkinson toured the waterways system by boat in the 1950s to 1970s with his wife Joy, he recorded them on over 9000 colour slides plus numerous black and white prints and reels of cine film. The result is this book, covering almost every waterway in Britain - not just the main lines but routes as obscure as the Cambridgeshire Lodes, Yorkshire's River Foss, and Scotland's Crinan Canal. Most of the pictures in the book are taken from the earlier years, and a number show regular freight traffic which has long since vanished - not just working narrowboats but 'Tom Puddings' on the Aire Calder, fishing boats crossing Scotland on the Forth Clyde and lighters carrying timber and metal on East London's River Lee - while the leisure craft illustrated are more likely to be small plywood cruisers and ex-army pontoons than today's purpose-built narrowboats.
