  2. However, that boat is only the small lead boat I was reading about yesterday. There still is the large boat that will hold the Royal family as they gallant down the Thames. The boat in the article is a handmade boat covered in gold and called the "Gloriana" - that is, unless I'm reading things incorrectly.
