Yorkie111 Posted May 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Thank you bottle that helps a lot A long journey but for a retired it is manageable And certainly cheaper than by road transport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinl Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Welcome Yorkie You don't mention the length of width of the boat, you wouldn't want to get to Dutton stop lock and find you don't fit. if we're talking a narrowboat fine if it's a widebeam then maybe not. You don't say why you want to go to Runcorn, that of itself is a mystery to anyone that's been there K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
