I'll ask next time I speak to the boat operator mate.
Boats got a canal trust license, do you know if its limited to 48hrs? Or a fortnight?

I think the biggest problem you'll have is somewhere to stop and moor-up. The banks are extremely high so I'm not sure how close you'd get mate.

I'll have a while to find somewhere suitable, maybe a bit away from the o\s, I'm new to this so could end up anywhere.

You say that, but I've been driving the fucking thing for 6 weeks now and it's still afloat. Not like some of the ones I crashed into. Fuck em, they should have got a bigger boat. I could drive it to Canvey for a laugh.

It's like driving a bread lorry in reverse, with no brakes. Bit fucking weird mate but its handy for a bit of fishing. Have crashed it a bit though. :D

I crashed a 60 footer on a stag do into another boat that was having a party and we had a mass brawl with people boarding each others boats and all sorts. . . . . . whoops :shock:


We called it 'The Battle of Alvechurch'

After some quite tasty fistycuffs two of my mates grabbed a couple of those throw-away BBQ's and a bag of Spitfire Ale from the roof of their boat and jumped back onto ours. A chase ensued for about 2 hours at a maximum speed of what must have been 4 nautical knots. I have honestly never laughed so much in my whole life . . . . . they were really pissed off. It was like the slowest pirate ship chase you've ever seen. :lol:

. . . . . . happy days & good times :lol:
