Back to our home moring

 We are now berthed in our home marina after a short journey from Rugby.

We set off at 8:55 and after about an hour reached the 3 lock Hilmorton Flight.  Fortunately all the locks were set in our favour by boats coming down so we were quickly through.  We entered our marina and moved straight onto our mooring at 11:55.  We will stay here tonight so we can take Densie to nearby Braunston for the urgent work on the engine vibrations and prop shaft leak that provided continual concerns during our journey.

Despite the problems this has been a very enjoyable trip. But time to go home.

3 hours travelling, 3 locks,  6.24 miles

Statistics for the whole journey:

37 days out, 196 miles travelled, 210 locks, 8 moveable bridges. 126 hours on the move.
