Not if you are careful. Of course some don't anticipate and are not, while
others don't realise that cross winds means moored boat owner should allow for
you going a bit quicker so you keep control and miss them. Still all that
assumes a level of live and let live that some contact sport types don't seem
to grasp as they get 'em ahead.

Yes - but canal boating is sometimes a contact sport - narrow passages
betweenlines of moored boats at festivals etc etc, and going slow to
avoid unsetting things in the moored boats, add a crosswind and
inevitably at times make contact.
