Had a leisurely wake-up on Thursday with the intention of having a relaxed sail to Port Edgar, last stop before the Forth and Clyde canal. So I squeezed in a bit of passage planning amongst which was phoning the sea lock at the start of the canal to find out what would be a good time to arrive on Friday.
The canal is closed. Apparently a lock gate has failed, it'll be maybe three weeks before it's fixed. That was my plans thrown in the air, looks like i'm heading for the Caledonian Canal again, which is a shame, i was getting rather used to the idea of cutting through to Glasgow.
Kismet! Not to worry the Caledonian should be magnificent! Keep blogging it's great stuff from this end of the line 😎
ReplyDeleteTa for enthusiasm for the blog. The Caledonian is great, I've had boating holidays several times on it. Quite liked the idea of using a canal I had'nt seen before:-)
