Oh, completely - that superstructure is a lot bigger than the actual rowing boat & all the fairylit "oars" are attached to the real ones by a framework, so as to move in perfect synchrony with the real strokes. You've got to admire a bloke who thinks like that. Even more one who actually goes ahead & does it.
Also, he has dressed up (admit it may not be entirely clear from the pic) which is always good for extra points to my way of thinking...

Amazing! I just read in your other post that the Parade lasts several months. How many boats were there?
hildegard says:
Hm.. the steam traction engine, the fire engine, the Spanish galleon, the lifeboat, the penteconter, the Ford Anglia, the racing car, the monster truck, the (candle-lit) birthday cake, Thunderbird 1... 10 that I recall, but those are probably just the ones I particularly liked. Mea culpa, I hope the Venetian Boat Builders Association will forgive me if I've left anyone out.

Just catching up with this. A worthy winner,IMO, and yes, I can just make out his costume :)
