𝐋𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐤 @𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐬𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐞

We welcomed London Waterbus Company again this week and the new edition to their fleet of trip boats.

Elizabeth will be in with us for a good while to bring her up to scratch for life on the canal out of Camden.

Milton was with us too for MCA and a little blacking. Annual maintenance is essential to keep them ship shape.

The greys were in too big and small.

A busy week incoming for us.

Slots still available towards end of November.

Lock 86 closure continues so remember to book passage if you are on a widebeam.
