Limehouse It has radial gates, with also act as sluices. We were once dropped down (onto the tidal Thames just affer low water) in under a minute! The locky got us to tie onto the slip rods and then virtually opened the gates, this was to flush out the floating crap that collects in the mouth of the lock. http://www.tuesdaynightclub.co.uk/T06_Imag/TidewayBowCreekRoyalDocks_Jan06/Pict3423.jpg Limehouse Lock on a rather slow fill...but you get the idea! -- Neil Arlidge - NB Earnest Follow the traveled TNC at : http://www.tuesdaynightclub.co.uk Yahoo!
