Aqua Narrowboats have a sponsorship scheme https://www.aquanarrowboats.co.uk/sponsorship-faqs/

Very true in our case. This year we planned to do the Cheshire Ring, visit Chester and sail into Liverpool. Scuppered by the Marple lock fiasco, the Middlewich breach and the Waddicar culvert.

Levels very low at bridges E and F close to Stanley Dock this morning note the traffic cone giving a handy indication of depth.

My heart goes out to anyone with a boat stranded on this stretch. I'm wondering if insurance would pay for a lift out (where possible) in such circumstances? This video shows the state of the dumping problem Makes me think it's going to take more than 6 weeks to sort out.

Booked the link for 8 August - here's hoping

We have two Crewmaster Crewfit 165n, they're fairly light and comfortable, I wouldn't consider doing the Ribble or Liverpool Link without them.

Perhaps it was installed by the same company that has the maintenance contract!!

I imagine the batteries took a hammering over the bank holiday weekend, was there this morning at 8.30 fortunately the Slipway pub has a slipway ? which made it fairly easy to turn my 47ft boat around. Locals did tell me the new licencee has smartened the pub up.

Stanley Dock also have moorings https://stanleydock.com/marina without the winter movement restrictions of Salthouse I imagine. However again probably not cheap but only a 5/10min bike ride into the city centre.

Certainly doesn't look like its had £1000 spent on it. No sign of any fire extinguishers which is a BSC fail for starters.

This is the agreement I've previously seen http://www.bridgewatercanal.co.uk/news/crtrecipricolagreement perhaps it was reviewed and is no longer in force?

I thought you needed one if returning on the Bridgewater within 28 days but have just looked at their site and I can no longer find any mention of it.

Nobody is right in every case except SWMBO.
