Date - 6 June 06 Day - Tuesday Start - Claydon flight End - Home moorings Napton
Just as I was about to set off this morning the Ownerships boat that was moored behind us left, so I had visions of all the locks being against us. When we arrived at the first lock there was a boat waiting to come down and this continued all the way up the flight with us only having to turn one lock and close one set of top gates. The summit must have been almost 6" below its normal level so dead slow was called for when meeting boats or we were on the mud and one or two of the boats we met had a problem because they went to close to the offside bank. When we arrived at the top of Marston Doles we were surprised not to find the back pumps running. We dropped down through the Marston Doles pair to find the pound below well up and chugged gently back to our moorings. Total engine hours run since we left 130 covering 307 miles and 165 locks -- Brian <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Visit my Web site at http://www.harnser.info ------------------------ Yahoo!
