So we should drop our plans to portage from Coventry to Brecon? K&J

Thank you, Allan and Tony, for your very helpful replies re Coventry Canal overnight moorings. It's reassuring to have somewhere to aim for rather than hoping to find a suitable place. We also have plans to cruise the Caldon/Leek Canals and the Mons & Brec. If anybody has any tips about pleasant and secure overnight moorings (or places to avoid) on those canals, we would welcome them. K&J

As almost-novice narrow-boaters, we would welcome advice on pleasant and secure overnight moorings on the Coventry Canal, between Swan Lane Wharf and Marston Junction. We are picking-up a rental boat from Swan Lane Wharf mid- to late afternoon on a day in September, heading for the Ashby Canal, and are not sure how far we will get in that first hour or two before it gets dark. Where should we aim for? K&J
