I was going to mention jumping narrow locks, which few people seem happy about attempting. They are 7ft wide (plus a little extra in places), not 8ft, though. -- Roland Perry Narrow locks are about 7ft 3ins wide at the bottom (my boat was 7ft 0.5ins wide. Some boats have spread to 7ft 2ins and still get through most locks). When you allow for the batter up to the top they come out at about 8ft on average. George |
