This weekend we had a visit from friends who have a boat in Lincolnshire who wanted a trip up the Nene. due to the weekends rain the river was running a bit fast and headroom was limited on one of the bridges but we made it to a pub where we enjoyed a drink.

More rain on the way back. For this trip I had temporarily wired in a new wiper to keep the screen clear but it was only partially successful.
Moored by the pub
On the return we had no more than 1 1/2 inches clearance on the bridge before our marina, something we need to bear in mind when the weather is not good.
