  1. I feel sorry for the overseas visitors who hire boats. How do they do all this online booking of tunnels etc.

  13. Of course it all helps CRT with their case that they want more funding from the government to help deal with global warming. Won't get any better though but their bonuses will get bigger

    Certainly the pound below Baddisley Wharf was very low 2 weeks ago. Nb Squire and I were stuck for at least 45 minutes as we tried to pass each over. Had to run water down from pound above untill the boats in the small marina started to lean. According to a boater there it has been like that for a couple of weeks
  17. Taken from the operating manual for the BD3 "The Tug engine operates over a speed range from 400 to 1300 rpm"

    but the vlockies know that their is a problem at Atherstone. The gates leak. CRT have been and said that they have fixed it but according to the Vlockies there is a certain pound which still runs dry
  19. Beta Tug engines came in 2 types The JD3 was a John Deere engine The BD3 was a Ford engine

    That is as crazy as turning on the bilge pump. Yes it empties the boat of water but does not stop the leak. The answer is to fix the leaks
