Hello All,
Been lurking for a bit soaking up canal lore and tips from you lot. Finally completing the purchase of my first boat next week all being well, then after some fettling time taking an inaugural cruise fro Droitwich Spa up through Birmingham to Kings Orchard Marina up on the Coventry Canal. I’m starting a new job working in the area so will be living on the boat for a few days each week and trying to modernise her a little at the same time, so I’m afraid I’ll be asking lots of questions...... exciting times ahead (hopefully)

Welcome! There are a few people on here who know what they’re talking about, quite a few who don’t. The fun is in trying to work out which is which!
