Out and about Posted by Peter Kingston
Quote: It just may be Mick! I've calculated Libertè's airdraft at 8.5ft approx. If I remove the windscreen, I should get 7.8ft. I see carlow, lowest bridge on the system, only has max airdraft of 8.46ft. But if this is at lowest summer water levels, (2.49ft), I'll be aground! I need 3.28ft water draft. If I get that, I'll only have 7.67ft. airdraft, which will be a tight squeeze even with the windscreen removed and crew sitting on the floor  The excellent guide I've received from Colin indicates that the above figures occur when the water level is just under the tow-path under the navigation arch, so it depends what depth of water this represents. I might be spending some time on the Barrow Regards Peter. P.S. Phew - At least you didn't notice my crooked wake 
Quote: Ye, sorry about that Mick, but you got it spot on with your conversions  . Problem occurred because I took my measurements of Libertè in ft and ins. and the guide quoted in metric, so I had to get my conversion tables out! But you've re-assured me no end. So on with the planning Regards peter Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum. Online UsersGuests within the past 30 minutes:
