  13. Small butty can and some times is a pain to moor up.ours is only 30 odd feet.the big boat "motor" is 61" so breasting up is a pain.over 50" butty and you get a discount on your licence.finding a 100" gap is sometime hard. to the point that we are now looking at having our butty streched Crt say small workshop needs a trading Licence but not sure in your case if your not selling from it..Sorry can't be any more help. Paddy.

  16. We came up a small flight of wide locks with the butty 3 days ago,the boats behind had a large crew.one of them came and "helped" us up,(thay did not catch us up) when i said thankyou he said "we had no choice you were holding us up!". If thay was in that much of a rush thay only had to ask and we would have let tham past.We do on narrow locks as we have to do each one twice!
