Google Maps shows 4! I can't see the join, either...


Definitely only three. Unless they've managed to hide one all these
years - perhaps it's part of the strategic battleplan for London
should the third world nuclear war come, where one of the boats would
sail up to central London to collect VIPs for evacuation - in days of
yore perhaps GLC bigwigs from County Hall? Maybe the annual trip up
the river with disadvantaged kids is actually cover for a training
exercise...

In which case, what's the fourth boat called then? Clem Attlee?
