It's #ColdWaterSafetyAwarenessWeek! Cold water poses a risk into boating season — even as air temps rise, water remains cold. Per @USCG, there were 219 recreational boating deaths in local waters from 2010-20; many presumed from cold water drowning. Keep safe! @NWS @NWSNewYorkNY

Somnambulation. CRT (Canal and River's Trust) are exploring the idea of a drive-in (sail-in? boat-in?) McDonald's on the cut! Place your order when you enter the lock chamber - collect it when you leave! Looks like they forgot to add water!

The end of our 2023 boating season is nigh.
We will shortly welcome our last community group booking for the year before Lancelot and Guinevere go into winter hibernation.
Before then we look forward to seeing Laleham Scouts for their residential trip with us.

A busy time at Tamworth Road Narrows for our volunteers last week with two activities in progress. They infilled behind the blockwork on one side and sealed the bottom edge of the offside wall with a sloping section of concrete.
