Great minds!

A thought which has been exercising us greatly for the last few days is 
how say 200 boats are going to get through to St Ives for next year's 
National in any reasonable time, and even more so, how they are all 
going to get back in about a week? There can't be that many VMs on the 
Nene, even doubling up and using all the 'informal' spots, and then 
there's the problem of Salter's Lode. You can do maybe, what, 5 boats 
at best in each tidal window?

The locky was muttering about it already. Seems there's some talk of 
sending some out through the Old Bedford River Sluice, after going 
round the southerly route through the Middle Level and through Welche's 
Dam, but that is also limited by the tide, of course.
