Diesel use

Calculation from Middlewich - Liverpool - Norbury Junction

Liverpool: 100 litres
Norbury Junction: 186.5 litres

Total: 286.5 litres

Engine Hours (09/09/14 - 14/10/14): 127.3
286.5 / 127.3 = 2.25 litres per hour

This seems high, even given that a significant amount was on the River Weaver or broad canals allowing a good cruising speed. Especially because quite a lot was also battery charging. The last check (09/09/14) shows 138 litres for 81 engine hours: = 1.7 litres  / hour – much better.

Engine hours calculation show the Kings Lock Service was done 246 hours after the 1000 hour service last year.

GH Marina

Day for packing up. Washed the roof and sides and polished the left side. Bought a bag of Supatherm from the marina (£12 as against £8.50 from Rennaisance).

Got away about 5.30 and were home by 8.50 or so. Easy run down.
