We were allowed to use our engine to get from lock to lock in the flights on the Caledonian!

 

We didn't at Fort Augustus because we were really wedged in at the back of the lock so it was easier to pull it through, but we did at the flights at Inverness and Neptunes.

I'd be a tad surprised if that tow line amongst the passengers would pass a Risk Assessment today . . .

Lord of the Glens. That thing passed us while we were moored for a few days at the bottom of Neptunes and we watched it up the flight. Its a bit of a squeeze!
