Ok thanks I was hoping it would be easier for hauling beer back.

I see on google maps there is an Aldi opposite McDonald s , but it doesn’t show the actual building, is it easily accessed from canal, where would best place be to moor.? Cheers

Filling the water tank and having partner I think helped me get out of a windy marina this morning, but my previous experience of hiring many narrow boats, makes me feel the bow is a lot lighter.But probably too late now to sort it.

Yeah, thanks, I will get a load of coal this year, and keep it more forward, but I known the answer is as you have suggested, but don't think that's practable without ripping up floor boards, so thank you for your answer, weird why they make them that way. .?what is a average draught of a boat that handles better. .? And what do most builders plan on draught of bow in water ?

It's an Aqualine I see some boats reverse, and I know at that speed, I would spin, but I can also see there bow is a lot deeper than mine.

My boat is two and a half foot in the water at the back and one and a half foot at the bow. In windy weather, or turning into a flow, it performs as you would expect , like a twig floating on water. This is my first boat and love it, had it four years, but the draught at the bow is a problem. I have learnt different ways to counteract it mostly in marinas etc, but for example the flow off the great Ouse on to Middle levels , took me three goes last time , I have done it twice before in a hire boat, and with a bit of oomph at right time, wasn't a problem. Every time I turn against the tide it turned me like a match, I only just made it on third attempt, with loads of brakes after getting to the slack water.. The lockie was surprised I never hit the sand bank on left of lock, but being so high draughted , ( I had seen a boat banked there b4) I thought I would be OK , as I was. My question is , is 18'' draught unusual, my bow does seem high to other boats. Is it a big job to adjust the bow to lower in the water. ?

Treat a narrow flight like your single handed, both of you out of the boat, keeps you both busy, and a lot quicker, even though you take your time.but in summer not much point as other boats coming in other direction will do that for you.

Preston brook marina ?

As long as none of the staff have the virus, you will probably not get it from another customer., possibly.

There is as I said, if not moor opposite on towpath side.

I used to be a Samaritan, but every time I tried to leave they talked me out of it.

I thought they were 48. Hrs further down, but if you want a place with rings, you might get in at the ring o bells pub, just after the bridge,or outside the slipway pub or the farmers arms or Heatons bridge inne. It's safe to moor anywhere along that stretch if you don't need rings. Also as has been said there is a mooring b4 the services at Burscough.

So it's on the bridgewater and Taunton canal then.

Pond gloves for the weed hatch, and chest waders for when you get too stuck.

The spelling in the advert makes me suspicious that all is not right.

Well it doesn't smoke when it's properly going, it might do for ten minutes when starting off again though.

Glow is best stuff I have used, fire was on 24/7 in winter, fire stayed in all night, very little ash, had to empty Morso squirrel once a week.

If you have a look at her other vlogs, you may review your findings. Get a grip.

Threatening two females, one a child, is the problem to me, also , from I can see , police not reading it right. Also where are the cart banners saying restrict movement on canals, I have seen only one.

Police doing a great job, not , again.

Just pay what you owe as you never entered into a longer contract, which would be one twelfth of yearly rent for April, and daily rate for May as a counter offer.-

This has been foreseen in tv doccumenta-

I am shocked people still read the sun.
