Had a Great day out today.

Paid for the BW licence yesterday , as usual as soon as we paid , the clouds rolled over........

A big surprise as we opened the curtains at home this morning - It was lovely !

So a cruise downstream , coupled with a tow of a Conquest back to the boatyard (failed steering) lashed side to side , behaved impeccably , although a little slower ! Cured us of wanting a Widebeam - Opening 2 gates at every lock - Ballache!

But all in all an excellent day out & a shakedown run for the next trip !

We had the same pleasure out in our new 23 today,great fun, lots of sun,

very relaxing and much easier than the 20 to keep in a straight line,

even made the missus happy to take the helm.only problem is St Neots

lock is still shut and I think St Ives is still out off action so can't go far yet.

Roll on Summer!

Whats wrong with them ?

Might be an easy fix that we can advise on.
