Waterway Tips #11 - Strong Water Flow At Locks

When approaching the bottom side of a lock, beware of potentially strong outflow from the lock when the water in the chamber is being discharged. The current created can really move a boat around so precautions must be taken to remain safe and damage free. This was filmed at Lock # 13 in Campbellford, along Ontario Canada's 240 mile long Trent Severn Waterway.

+Keith OB We always have a mid ship line on whenever we are docked. Remember that 'Boogaboo' is subject to the wind , so traveling with lots of extra lines makes for a secure stay everywhere.
