Rob and I have posed the question a few times about the best way to get up locks when there are 3 boats. Here’s what it is and whether it works or not #ideas #good #tips
Well done James, you put a smile on my face seeing you confidently driving two boats breasted up into a lock whilst eating a toasted cheese sandwich 😊 I remember how nervous you were setting off in Sloe Patrol for the 1st time. Best wishes from Cape Town
I can't imagine moving two boards side by side, but you've become expert at it. The kitchen cabinet looks great. And the dog pooping contest made me laugh and prompt me to ask, WHAT THE HECK, DOGOWNERS!?! PICK UP YOUR POOP!! Leigh
I’m BACK!!! Been in Australia, Korea, and Japan for a couple of months. Working to catch up in reverse. Really did dig your plan, sorry leap frog didn’t work. Good to see HMS Serafina again. Really like your handling of the two rafted up boats, well done. Finally, like the long hair; gives you the look of a great 19th century composer or mad professor! Can’t wait for more.
I missed you !!! Australia wow!!! Was that a leisure trip or business ?? Glad you’re liking certain bits but my hair is off bounds for the comments !!! Mad professor is defo the way it’s going. I need a good old trim up So glad to see your name again - welcome back bud
Really wondering how difficult it is moving the two boats together some of the canal looks very narrow. What happens if another wide boat comes toward you.
In most places two widebeams can pass each other. Occasionally, one may have to hold back and wait for the other one if going through a bridge for example Thanks
Some top notch pootling there, James. Didn't hit a single lock. More mines than a Russian trench line, along that stretch... All the best, mate. Mind where you put your feet. 💩
The amount of dog mess everywhere is increasing. CRT sent out a newsletter last year in which it was casually mentioned that they would be getting rid of dog waste bins on the towpaths as well as other rubbish bins for boaters. I did complain to the CRT but never heard back 😡
