Here’s a picture of my boat at keadby I arrived yesterday having spent two lovely days on the tidal Trent. It was much more enjoyable than when I did the journey the other way. Because I didn’t have a self appointed canal boat expert phoning me up every ten mins trying to micro manage the journey. I don’t know how I did it, but I’ve managed it this time with out his expert help. Everywhere I go the Facilities are closed. I’m starting to get paranoid first Nottingham and now keadby. Are crt trying to tell me something ?  |

What facilities do you need kris? with a dry loo presumably no need for Elsan. If there are no bins one can burn the rubbish and if there is no water then use less water. There must be enormous tank(s) on a boat that size. It seems to me on a craft like that set up properly one could go without RSW services for ages. Worth considering a water filtration setup if only for washing water. |

Worth considering a water filtration setup if only for washing water. “craft set up properly,” are the critical words in that. Mine still remains an ongoing project, so a shower would have been nice. |

OK.
Can you not put a shower in there ?
I definitely would not be relying on public showers but then I am a bit of a soap dodger to ber fair.
Ironically both my boats have immaculate shower facilities aboard.

Good to see a pic of your boat, so I can recognise it and knock on. You might prefer to paint it.😂

He might be welcome to moor up alongside you, but he isn’t me. A don’t want to be seen with that carbuncle, I’ve got my street cred to consider. I must say I’ve enjoyed keadby mooring up with boats bigger than mine. |
