Having scraped down both sides of some locks in a 6ft 10inch boat, I suspect we'll have to agree that they vary quite a bit. -- Roland Perry I went through most narrow locks with my boat ( and others have certainly taken her through any I missed). I only stuck once on width and that was top Marston Doles which was reknown for hanging up working boats. However I have had trouble on numerous occasions on length. George |
