A Potential Problem

So after a perfect shake down cruise for Naughty-Cal we are now faced with a potential problem with our trip to Kings Lynn at Easter.

Yesterday afternoon Canal and Rivers Trust issued this navigation notice:

"Notice Alert

River Witham

Starts At: Lock 2, Bardney Lock
Ends At: Lock 1, Stamp End Lock

Tuesday 24 March 2015 until Friday 27 March 2015 23:59

Type: Advice
Reason: 3rd Party Works

Original message:

We would just like to warn boaters that the EA are currently struggling to maintain water levels in the pound from Bardney Lock to Stamp End Lock.

They are working to rectify the problem as quickly as possible.

You can view this notice and its map online here:

Hopefully they can rectify the problem in the next week or so, otherwise it looks like our plans will be scuppered by river levels, and not the usual problem of high water levels but low water levels. 

Fingers crossed for a swift resolution.
