Scarecastle tunnel is not at all scary to me. You make it under the measure device, you should be fine. It's really beautiful at the entrance and even more so at where you exited.

Please do a tunnel journey with just the music, no diesel clatter and the camera forwards, I find the moving walls wonderfully hypnotic. But the most amazing thing to me is the deep and rich orange of the water at Kidsgrove, as you once said, "Tomato Soup".

That’s a good idea with setting a camera up on the bow for our next journey through a tunnel. Did you ever watch Doctor Who? The footage and photos I get going through tunnels reminds me of the opening credits 😊

Went through the tunnel last October. Nothing to worry about as it is well lit by your headlight and internal lights. We were more concerned going though Braunstone as we had to navigate pass other boats. At least Harecastle, you are all going in the same Direction. Very surprised you never had your life jackets on, especially after a poor soul died a few years ago, when he went overboard

We said the same about Harecastle versus Braunston. Give us one way Harecastle any day, even though it’s very low in that one stretch. We always meet a boat in Braunston tunnel, and of course it’s always at the kink! None of us were advised to wear our life jackets by the CRT volunteers on duty, but we should consider that given the story about the person overboard. That’s sad, we hadn’t heard that 😞. Thanks for watching 😊

I didn't find it scary per sée.... It was the lessening of the height that got me. I swear I was 7ft 9in when I went in but looking at the "fuel guess-the-gauge" bamboo stick, I'm only a miserable 3ft 6in now!! Could hardly see where I was going by the end. Thank God for them there doors opening. I found Anthony's light very comforting in a strange way. Thank you for the experience. Down here in South Devon, I might find it a hard walk to get all the way there but... you never know... my 1959 Premium Bond might come up one day and I can buy a kayak of my own!! Many thanks.

Well done. Now you will need to do the Standedge Tunnel - it is a bit of organizing but a much different feel especially with the trains whizzing passed you in the tunnel next to you and if you are near a cut through, you can see them and feel the wind rush. Would love to do that tunnel again as well as the Leeds to Liverpool.

I’ve commented on another vlog about the Harecastle Tunnel and our journey through before. We came through from the other end and the CRT asked us to slow down (strange as my Husband never went fast anyway!) We were 5th out of 5 and were looking forward to it. Right where the height drops down to its lowest, the boat just went sideways and we couldn’t get it back on track. Obviously our pram cover was down and the cratch cover undone at the top with the sides tucked in (as advised by the CRT on the day). It ripped our pram cover, scraped the metal frame of it and took both front top corners of the boat. This was due to the roof of the tunnel coming down so low, the sides curved much closer to our roof and caught the boat. We feel if we’d been left to go at the speed we were originally going, the momentum would have kept us going forward in a straight line. Whatever the reason, now I’m on my own, will never go through there again! On talking to other people, quite a few have damaged their boats going through but until we said something, had kept quiet.

4 ай бұрын

Oh no that’s not a good experience at all Wendy 😞. I know exactly what you mean about the boat going sideways, as the same thing happened to us going through Chirk Tunnel on the Llangollen, going against the flow, and we just crabbed our way through scraping along. Thankfully that tunnel has a towpath and our son Alex was with us and jumped off to pull the centreline to sort of get us back on track in a straight line. I can only imagine what it was like to be caught like that and not being able to correct it in any way. Tunnels are not my favourite thing at all, I’ve only just got the confidence to go through bridges with me at the tiller. I keep saying I need to build my confidence this year as I’ve slipped into the role of lock operator and have been quite happy sticking with that! 😊
