Wednesday was very hot on the boat in that we only managed 3 hours cruising and stopped for the day at 12.15 just past Iron Bridge Lock in Cassiobury Park. It was so warm in the boat we deployed our 12 volt fan to cool down the bedroom and only had the sheet on overnight. Today was much cooler but still warm enough for shorts with a heavy shower lasting 20 minutes and we managed 11 locks and 8 miles in 5 hours-finishing at 13.15.
