    Talking of experts, have you spoken to Malcolm McBride at the LAA about this. He could examine the hinge to determine if there was a pre-existing crack that could have caused a failure.

    If the door was correctly fitted to open freely and the strut positioned in such a way that there was not effort on the hinge when fully open, then there is no reason (not enough efforts) that this hinge breaks in flight when the door is closed. So it broke when the door opened then departed. I did fly with a crack on one hinge for month before I replaced it... and it's the other door who departed because of the rear pin not correctly engaged!

    Hi Nigel, I'm not surprised the Europa plays second place to a beneteau 411! We have a canal boat (bluebelle) that draws .62 m and based in Vermenton on n ivernais. Certainly the Bourgogne canal and nivernais would be difficult- I, ve seen a westerly bilge centau scraping the bottom of the Bourgogne. Lot of weed too, so overheating common with some boats. I have no personal experience of the loing canal but hope to do that circuit in September. The book says 1.8m draft. Am going to boat next week so cannot comment on water levels now. If you haven't come across it, fluvial net.com with their fluviacap planner i s good as is VNF website. Best wishes, Graham. P.s. if you do come through the canals would recommend plenty of fenders for the locks and hire boats! The midi in particular is frantic.

Relaxing and you see the re al France. Endless walks and cycling on tow paths, as well as the fun of han dling the boat and locks etc. its a really good holiday for all ages.

However for quieter canals in the heart of France look at the nivernais canal in burgundy.Plent y of hire companies including France afloat, le boat, nicholls and locaboat, all on line, hire on several of the canals.
