I wouldn't bet on it!

We got to the same point (I was lurking on a friend's boat). Unfortunately
they graded the bed as part of the flood relief works a couple of years back
and you simply can't get any further now. In the past we had Badger about
2/3 of the way under West Bridge but that won't happen again.

8 am? We'd gone well before that!
