Navigational Notes

When turning at the Wharf be aware that the Wharf / winding hole is shared with the water point and this can restrict the size down to about 60'.
Be careful when turning as there is a boat moored at the Wharf on a BW approved mooring.
CaRT have re-piled the tow path side and significantly reduced the size of the winding hole. 70' boats are regularly getting stuck here, 68' boats can turn however it's very tight (2/9/20).
