It was a rhetorical statement @magnetman intended as a humerous device ... that went well didn't it Night boating is not something we see much of on the canals ... I'm quite pleased really as it is disruptive having headlights flashing around, and impossible not to get up and have a nosey no matter how comfy you are. Rog At least I don't go around nicking people's boats In fairness, I believe he only stole the one.

I didn’t know there are any locks at the Braunstone housing estate Leicester, maybe your thinking of the locks at Braunston Northamptonshire. potato/potato either way you're in a pickle.

I do not think I could ever do those locks at Braunstone overnight..they terrify me during the day! I didn’t know there are any locks at the Braunstone housing estate Leicester, maybe your thinking of the locks at Braunston Northamptonshire. Oops ..Yes Braunston Northants.. Didn't know there was a Braunstone in Leics.

Did you mean absquatulate perhaps @magnetman ? Rog Oh yes. Speaking of absquatulation of an evening I did some sea trials yesterday and friend kindly got a little imagery of Dulcinea sitting in her bow wave. That was about 6 knots so definitely not fast enough for JohnV and there was some smoke production from the exhaust stacks. This is a screenshot from a phone camera video in quite dark conditions but still shows the nice bow wave formation.

I hope no moored boaters were adversely affected by your night time 'wave crest riding' Rog

Obviously I meant when passing moored boats. In this instance the nearest moored boat was about half a mile away.

I'm hardly likely to do it near moored boats because dogless might then think I am a nuisance and confiscate the boat. I would not wish him to think of me as a nuisance.
