Answers for a cretin
The reason CART is not permitting navigation past the breach on the aqueduct is that there is a fucking breach on the aqueduct and it is being worked on. Only a massive twat like you would suppose otherwise.
There are no past posts that Arnac would find either interesting or useful because it's a large pile of shite obsessively repeated many times by a deranged crank.
You will post more "as soon as you have time" because you have fuck-all else better to do. Neither do I, as it happens. I can do this all day.

We're one of the many boats currently stuck on the Lancaster waiting to see if CRT have any plans to facilitate a window of opportunity for boats to cross the Ribble before the autumn. The latest I have from official updates is that there will be a limited period of seven days from 20th September to bypass the breach works on the Lanky in either direction and that the works on the Ribble lock seal will be starting in early October. Passage will therefore not be possible once this work starts. I have not managed to get a response from CRT to this question. I appreciate there are lots of variables, however, it would be helpful if they would confirm if they are intending to try and facilitate crossings, even if circumstances eventually dictate they cannot. Has anyone managed to get a more definitive answer from CRT? Hello Arnac, . . and welcome to Thunderboat. I doubt there'll be any definitive answers from C&RT for you, or anyone else wanting to make the passage from Preston back to the Rufford Arm at Tarleton. But the good news is that with the joint co-operation of Preston Marina (Preston Docks), Douglas Marine (boatyard at Hesketh Bank on River Douglas), and Mayors Boatyard at Tarleton, who operate Tarleton Lock for C&RT, we can advise, schedule, and assist with passage from the Lancaster back onto the L&L's Rufford Arm at Tarleton for everyone who's been left stranded by the C&RT. God will be of considerable assistance too, . . he's still sending two tides up the Ribble every day, . . and the majority of them are big enough - 8.0 metres or more on the River Gauge at Preston Docks - to put enough water in the lower parts of Savick Brook for shallow draught canal boats, . . whatever nonsense the clowns at C&RT are saying to the contrary. Do you know roughly how many boats in total are wanting to get back from off the Lancaster before Winter ? With the Half-Tide Gate/Barrier at the low end of the semi-tidal section of Savick Brook out of use, it's very unlikely that any passages from Preston back to Tarleton will be possible without at least a one tide layover in either Preston Docks, or on a floating stage at Hesketh Bank on the River Douglas. Have the C&RT given any specific reasons, valid or otherwise, for limiting passage past the site of the breach at the aqueduct to seven days starting on 20 September ? Please call or e-mail if you would like more details, or any questions you'd like to have answered. You may well have read them already, but there are quite a few posts in this thread and others that you'll find informative and useful. I'll post links to them as soon as I've got time. Regards, Tony Dunkley.

So, nothing new posted, just the same old crap endlessly repeated.
I guess you must be busy.

I'm going to take some time to identify and locate you. Read what you will into that statement, . . but keep in mind that out of the two of us, only I know what ''that'' means.

That's the spirit.
Nothing new on the Ribble Link front then?

I believe the term is to 'sic' one's dog.
Congrats on the waterskiing. This cements your status as an incorrigible old gimmer.

I think it's safe to assume Arnac's got the message by now.
