This is notice of an embryonic notion for a flotilla cruise in and  
around the Manchester area in a couple of years time.

I know there are potential problems to be overcome and I'm only  
seeking expressions of interest at this very early stage, before  
making any attempt at an itinerary.

The specific MSC conditions are not over arduous. Following extracted  
from http://www.shipcanal.co.uk/marine-msc/notices.htm

Please note for every transit made on the Manchester Ship Canal by  
Pleasure
Craft the following four conditions must be complied with:-
1. Completed Application Form with the Certificate of Seaworthiness  
section
completed by a surveyor from our approved list or a surveyor who has
the Qualifications stated on the Form.
2. Copy of Craft Insurance.
3. Transit Fee (Payment by Cheque Only).
4. Mobile Phone Number during Canal Transit(VHF Equipment Adventageous).
All the above paperwork must be received at the Harbour Master’s  
Offices at
Eastham, at least 48 hours before the planned canal transit.

Let me know  . . . .

Captain Beeky
