## Caption

A small boat has crossed the English Channel carrying 230 people, the largest number to make the journey in a single vessel. It breaks the previous record set in July, when 165 people made the crossing on a single vessel. BBC Verify has investigated whether these small boats are actually getting bigger. #EnglishChannel #Boats #UKNews #BBCNews
