Hi All,
My wife and i are going to be hiring a boat from Anderton marina for the first time and are looking to chug down to the big lock (75) just north of Middlewich, then turn round in the winding hole and head back up past Anderton and through to Lymm.
I have been on narrow boats before when i was at school, but my wife is a complete novice.
We are a little nervous about the big lock (75) in middlewich as its likely to be our first. Will their be lockies at this lock for the may bank holiday in 2 weeks?
If no lockies are going to be about, is it okay for us to wait at the lock landing for another boat to share the lock so we have some help?
Any advice would be most welcome.
Thanks.
