    My main point was that boats aren’t free to run. They require constant maintenance and care to remain viable. If you’re going to include the maintenance and running costs of a horse team, then you need to also include the equivalent for boats.

    Don’t get me wrong, when you have a waterway, boats still win, by a large margin. Hence why Europe has so many canals etc.
