A week ago I followed a wide beam boat crawling south from Napton having 
been collected new from Warwick and on their way to the Thames. They 
were lifting fenders at bridges as the boat only just fit through most 
of them even without the fenders. I did wonder if they were going to 
make it all the way to their mooring. Picture at:

I thought the limit was 12ft on the GU but don't know where the pinch
point that makes it less than 14ft is, or are all the bridges 12ft? I'd 
assumed they (and the boat mentioned above) were 14ft but I've not tried 
passing in one to test this ;-)
