October is here and the evenings drawing in.
The autumn colours are starting to emerge.
During October and early November we start to notice our engines starting to work harder and the boat speed decreasing.
This is often due to leaves being sucked up to the propeller, if this happens just pop the controller into neutral and they should fall to the bottom of the canal.
If that fails to help then a bit of reverse thrust can clear the propeller.
Patience is needed during autumn cruising.
Enjoy the marvellous colours
