Canal tours versus your own boat

Hi everyone, has anyone done the canals by renting your own boat? Could you let me know if it seems safe and if you’ve done it and enjoyed it?.

As I mentioned in another post (https://community.ricksteves.com/travel-forum/denmark/canal-tours-in-copenhagen-68f791ef-dba9-418a-affd-b8bc09938516) I have tried it some years ago and enjoyed it.

I felt safe, but about the same time two US students were killed by a jet ski driver, who were later arrested and punished. I don't remember the details. I think they added a barrier to prevent jet skis in the harbour - it was always illegal. I'm sure GoBoat has the details.
