Tuckeys are very reasonable, especially if there are several lifts at the same place at the time. It's the lorry transport that isnt cheap...speak to Monica at Tuckeys who can liaise truck transport as well. If you havnt got the work time to move, the simplest option is to get a knowledgable boat mover to do it for you once the lock is fixed....even if you are living on board and commuting to work....you just go back to where they have moored next day.

Excellent vid Steve

No water shortage... Seasick, never...

We were boating just yesterday...

But Bloomin heck, welcome back!

Quite obviously not canal, but a historic Brit ship ... And a rather pretty US one.

The lack of publicly released findings or report looks to me like a protection racket.

Brinklow actually has a couple of moorings by the service point for those who cannot get back to their pontoon due to the winds on the day. Having brought a few boats out of there, it is very bleak on a windy day, you may end up reversing down the marina coming off the pontoon if the boat has been moored nose in.

Have they still not built that flight of locks yet...?
