It will be well tested before it goes to France...if there are any French Waterways left by then. I was the only person that was able to weld up Earnest's wing tanks, so they did not leak. With over 1000 litres of diesel tanks welded into the bottom of the barge, I want to *know* they are not leaking (thinks, that must mean the barge comes with 1000 litres of the finest Irish agricultural green diesel) It appears that most of Ireland is now an even bigger boating lake. Graham was gobsmacked that Waterways Ireland have not closed the Shannon Erne to navigation, well not up and down to Letrim-In-Shannon. The Shannon was only shut after the locks were inoperable. There are going to be many wrecked boats on the Shannon as a lot have floated off, or over their moorings. -- Neil Arlidge NB Earnest - Untill the plate kit is delivered TNC http://www.tuesdaynightclub.co.uk/tour.html
