Distance Travelled 10.4 miles
Total 12 Locks and 2 Tunnels
A glorious day to be travelling
on the Canals! Hot sun, slight breeze and a quiet canal, what more could you
ask for. The only real feature we had to deal with today was Saddington Tunnel
but at only 808 metres it isn’t really a challenge.
Stopped off at Debdale marina for
them to consider the charging problem, engineer seems to think that it is the
alternator that is not charging properly and needs reconditioning, likely to
cost in the order of £500 but will have to be done if we are to cure the
problem. Have found an additional drain on the system that didn’t really help
and that was the microwave, when only plugged in and not being used drains 13
amps from the system so have now switched it off and am hopeful that we won’t
wake up in the morning to the ‘low battery’ light!
Picked up a geocache today to
take part in their month of geocaching, not sure that I will be able to keep up
the rate of a geocache a day but we will have to see.
