The boatman of River Douro Once upon a time, there was a boatman who used to sail in River Douro. One day, when the boatman was sailing on the boat with a family, a child falls into the river. The humble boatman, held out his hand into the river and pulled the child's fragile little arm. Due to this act, the boatman became well known.
