  1. It is people like this that give the many excellent volunteers a bad name.
  2. You will need to carry one anyway for the locks
  3. A heavy goods vehicle crashed into the Canal at Middlewich this morning. Info from Manchester Evening News website.
  4. Have a look at the "narrowboat will" vlog as he has been stuck on the Lancaster Canal for months.
  5. Many thanks for the link David, I hope to use the Hulmes ferry soon depending on the opening times.
  6. Many thanks for the information Peter, I will contact them in the near future.
  7. Could any forum member tell me if this ferry is still in operation.
  8. Wigan drydock (Canal and River Trust) if it is not already booked.
  9. Very early morning or late evening would be ok providing no one has moored there overnight. And if it is not wide enough it wouldn't take too long to go through the staircase to wind and come back down.
  10. Guilty as charged - I must read the posts more thoroughly before replying.
  11. The latest update states that the local team are currently planning to install weir boards to improve water levels. The next update will be on Monday 31st March 2025.
  12. DVCC is Douglas Valley Cruising Club WHCC is Watch House Cruising Club SIBC is Strawberry Island Boat Club
  13. Narrowboats have been passing for the last few weeks without any problems and I don't remember seeing anything that would stop a widebeam recently. There may be a few more trees down after today though.
  14. Fenella has been moored in the Wigan area for many years and it is definitely not the missing boat Lord Gadbury.
