It happens that Terry Streeter formulated :
> Sun Jun 15th - 12 miles, 0 locks - York to York
> Total cruising time 2 hours 25 minutes.
>
> Disaster strikes, all my plans lie scattered around me in ruins - Naburn 
> lock is bu&&ered.  Arun was booked to go through Naburn lock this 
> morning at 6.45am, which meant a fairly early start at 5.10am.  Got to 
> Naburn at 6.20am and tied up to the lock landing to wait for the lock 
> keeper to arrive.  A fibreglass cruiser also turned up for the same 
> locking, out for a weeks cruise on the rivers and canals.  The lock 
> keeper arrived at around 6.50am to advise us that something had failed 
> in the downstream gate paddles and that they couldn't get them to seal 
> properly in order to completely fill the lock.  Divers would be required 
> to inspect the apparatus and nothing would start before Monday now. 
 Nothing came up on the BW stoppage page today, but it is Sunday
