Introduction
A "Saros" is a period of about 6,585 days (just over 18 years)
during the course of which, the Earth, Moon and Sun return to the
same approximate places
(see Wikipedia for more details).
Saros the narrowboat, hasn't reached her first 'Saros' yet, having
only been launched in 1998, so she will have achieved her first proper
birthday about Sunday 15th February 2016 when the relevant heavenly bodies
will be in the same alignment as at her launch.

well loved boat from the Ownerships stable. The last link takes you to
