Locks...
We've done locks...Trent Severn twice, Illinois twice, Tennessee twice,
Eastern Erie once with the second time coming up this summer.
All those stories about dirty lock walls are true.
Well, except the Erie Canal - they are worse than dirty!!
I saw a couple of boats on the T-S this last summer with one of the best
solutions I have seen. They covered their fenders with white poly sand bags.
I have ordered a bundle of 18"x30" bags (100 pieces) that will fit over the
large 16x28" fenders (I think they are large enough to cover the cloth
covers as well).
Since I only have 12 fenders this size on Letitia I will have some left
over.
Let me know off-line if you are interested in sharing the cost of the bags.
My thinking is I will make packages of 10 for $15 including shipping.
