Otherton to Great Haywood

Really nice day for boating. Tied up for lunch in the shade after Bridge 98, and then home. Iain did most of the steering, except that he also did most of the locks with Glenys and Margaret! He brought Erin Mae impeccably round the GH junction, into the marina and round the moorings to our berth. I took her into and out of the locks, and then negotiated with a boat coming the other way through the narrow sections just short of GH.

11 miles, 7 locks, 6 hours engine
