Hi, do I need to get an anchor for my norman 23 ? It is going to be used on the river ouse Yorkshire. Also what type/size would you suggest and where/how would I attach it to the boat?

I think it is below the lock, it is on the york side.

Yes Flinty, you are indeed correct! It is Naburn. Tis my Alzheimers! Same applies though. |

Isn't naburn the tidal lock?? or is it another name for the same lock?
I use the more traditional river navigation system,ie the lock a short walk from the blacksmiths arms......

Good advice from Flinty although the Ouse does quieten down a lot above Bishopthorpe Lock.(tidal lock) Problems come with extended heavy rainfall.

It's a good idea as the yorkshire ouse can rise pretty rapidly and run like hell, don't mess about with the folding grapnell types as they don't hold very well, a danforth type lurking somewhere out of the way with a good length of rope attached just in case it's needed, a length of chain at the anchor end helps it lay down properly.
