hello all
my friend is possibly facing a trip from Packet Boat to Limehouse in a narrow boat - via Brentford I assume. It will be their first time on the Thames. They are intending to come via the canal, but (apparently and unknown to me), there are some lock closures planned and if they miss their timing, they'll be required to return via the river.
Please pass on your tips and advice for newbies. It's a small narrow boat, but the engine is good. They will have an anchor, lifejackets, radio.
I've assumed they'll need to time it to arrive at Limehouse LW-2 to ensure there's enough water to get in.
As a raggie, my universe and experience ends at Tower Bridge - so have nowt to contribute! THanks.
