Delivery Cruise, Day 3

We got off to a late start after shuffling cars, passing through Braunston, taking on fuel at Braunston Boat Services (next to the Bottom Lock Chandlery). We made good time however, arriving next to the Engine Arm at Napton before the farmhouse cream teas closed. Ewan opted for a strawberry ice cream and was served with Napton Waterbuffalo ice cream. I would have liked to try some but he ate it all.

Thanks are also due to our friend Andy Ogden who accompanied us from Daventry to Napton, crewing ably.

Total distance is 9 miles, 3½ flg and 8 locks.
