went to woolhampton from aldermaston sat, there was 2 boats moored outside the rowbarge. one gate had a broken top hinge from a craft hitting it to hard. It was a hire boat with a load of drunken adults with a 15 year old navigating. They went through the lock (the door still sealed at that point), winded then came down stream through the lock. they were luck the gate didn't fall on them.
Interesting note tho, a 67 ft boat cannot wind outside the rowbarge but a 60ft can
