  23. Sorry to hear about your situation. Why not put the house and boat on hear for sales. I’m sure with the amount of people networking on here it would create a lot of interest. Save a load of commissions,brokers,estate agents. Good luck for the future.
  24. Having done the tunnel west to east in 2019 and 2020 on a boat with a 2 ft 10in draft. The fist time was with a volunteer chaperone called Alister who used crutches. He sat at the front of the boat and talked to the wife about the tunnel. He had been through the tunnel over 160 times. He new it like the back of his hand. Granted not steering but his instructions were very helpful. Over shot the checking points as the boat take some stopping 😁. There are three check points to make sure everything is ok. Like Alister says it’s the safest tunnel on the system. If your lucky you my see a passing train which is a fascinating sight. In 2020 Covid system was in place. As we waited for our passage west to east, a brand new boat with quite a large air draft came out of the tunnel. Not a scratch on it . No protective padding. When I approach the chaperone he was the trip Boat skipper he obviously new his stuff. When he saw my boat his first words was something like I hate these kind of boats 🤣🤣. I said I was more than happy to drive the boat through the tunnel. Which is what I did while he sat in the boatmans cabin socially distancing. Didn’t have to stop at the check in points as the volunteer drove to the checkpoint to se if we arrived ok. All in all very good system in unusual circumstances. Some people should give it a go before they make a comet without having experiencing it. I know I must be mad but I decided to give it a miss this year.🤪🤪🤪
