that was a great film, that takes me back, I spent many good times upon the River Medway not only working on the coasters and Barges with crescent shipping but on my own boat in later years, going to the Maidstone Boat rally, great days great fun, never to be forgotten. thank you for putting this on here.......................
Thank you for your comment. It was very kind. I would have loved to have seen the old barges on the river. Never really seem to be able to find too much out about what happened in those days.
thanks for the lovely clip - it is very useful! We used to have a boat at Hampstead in 2008 . We are now getting a boat again to moor there in 2022 and thought me may go tidal this time as we were too anxious on our older boat Flamingo to risk it back then! Would def like to try tidal with our new small boat though. I noticed the East Farleigh Flag - we used to be with them also. Happy memories and thanks for the useful video especially showing the tidal route.

Thanks! It was a good day and the first time we tried going tidal. Not too difficult if you follow the tides.
Thanks for this video. I'm looking to buy a narrowboat and keep it on the Medway for a while before cruising the UK on the CRT network.
We’ve just bought a Narrowboat now and don’t regret it at all! Cheers!
