Rowing east along the River Avon in a wooden skiff with two friends.
A skiff is a traditional type of rowing boat adapted for leisure use on inland waterways: long, graceful and slender for speed, but broad enough for stability and comfort. It dates back to the early to mid-1800s. The oarsman sits in the center; the passengers, meanwhile, sit back in comfort and steer the boat with a pair of ropes manipulating the rudder.
