Lock solo as a beginner on a leisure craft
Dave /Helen replied to Calranthe's topic in New to Boating?
Hi cant you ask your mate to come with you for the 1st few locks, work the locks as a solo but he can stay on the boat just in case you get in trouble. -
I'm thinking about getting a tat of a old narrow boat going along the canal on my arm !!!

I have had mine a while now and not had 1 complaint rather the opposite have been asked to take photos of other people's boats for them from the air as they move along the canal !!!!

I put this topic up a few weeks ago just for a laugh and god did I get shot down! But got one and love it and it has come in handy finding moorings and shops etc

Hi all need your help I want to get a drone (I know boys and their toys) her who must be obeyed said if I can come up with 5 good reasons we need one I can get one, I can only think of 2. 1, could send it up to find a shop or pub 2, could send it to look around corners to see if there are better mooring or if the lock is free Can anyone think of any better excuses to get one Thank Dave

We are on the Nene and it's a lovely and quiet river, one thing to remember is there isn't a lot of moorings so plan ahead !! And if we get a lot of rain some bridges are low,

Thanks they recommend it because we are going to be living on the boat and intend to cruise the waterways all year round so we will have washing machines etc in use, I was thinking solar panels would be better but would they be up to the job ? Same here Bill and washing machine don't know why she can't use a bucket Same here bill and the washing machine don't know why she can't use a bucket

Hi all I'm new to this site and this will probably be my 1st of many questions . We are looking at geting a wide beam boat made and becoming a Constant cruiser next year, at the moment we are looking at the Eurocuiser we have been told we should get a travel power installed at a cost of £3250.00, this seems a lot of money do I really need one ?? Thanks Dave
