I've walked on it.

I once walked round my boat during a winter in the canal at Crinan.

Notice the BBC think it is the UKs largest canal, they are getting good at this misinformation business.

 

[awol]

If you count Lochs Lochy, Oich and Ness as part of the canal then it probably has the most water.

 

[FlyingGoose]

Yes how do you quantify largest,
the most water
the largest vessel carried
the longest
the deepest
BBC are getting poor in their descriptions

Seem to recall a geezer called Mosses was running trips down one somewhere years ago, but it all went t..ts up when someone opened the gates & let the water in.

I swear I saw that geyser opening one of the locks , did he have long white hair and blue eyes and told you the waters would part

 

[Daydream believer]

Did he have a stick & a paving slab with something like " colregs" written on it?

Probably caused by too much green algae.
