(2.) I append herewith a Table from which it will be seen that the number
of boats inspected during the year 1905 was 1,087, and 961 of them were
found to conform with the Canal Boats Acts and Regulations.
(3.) Of the remaining 126 boats, twenty did not comply with the requirements
as to registration, thirty had no certificate on board, in five the certificate
did not identify the owner with the boat, seventeen were not properly lettered,
marked and numbered. On two boats, the number of persons on board
exceeded that for which the boat was registered.
