But I get their argument will be that the river is shut, so they don't need to.

Er.... NO. The river was not shut. Indeed the river needed to remain open and operational for liveaboards who needed to move their boats for operational purposes like pumping out.... something i would have thought you realised as that is your name and Avatar!

From the EA navigation page:
"Sunbury Lock has a sunken boat in the main channel above the lock cut. No attempt should be made to navigate in this area."

No need to apologise.

Er ... there has been a tree obstructing Marsh Lock for weeks and a sunken van at Oxford to name but a few.

Looks perfectly normal to those of us who use the tidal Medway below Allington Lock. Mind you ,we normally enjoy avoiding a settee or two as well
Must confess our EA lads down here would have probably shifted that before now .
Get a rope round it , tow it round the corner out of the way and sort it later ?
