Kerr Barging Blogs

We have spent a fair bit of time cruising in the South Pacific aboard our 33 years young 11.1metre yacht, Pastime of Sydney. We are now cruising through the canals and rivers of France on our old barge, "Anja", which was built in the North of the Netherlands in 1903. Anja was 110 years old in May 2013 and we celebrated with good French Champagne- but the boat did not get any! In 2014, for Anja's 111th, we took her back to where she was built in the North of the Netherlands.

The giant boat lift

Here is a small slideshow with some of the photos of our experience in the Strepy boat lift in Belgium. You will see some of the giant cables, counterweights, us in a "tub" with the peniche (barge) "Sandra" and some views. It might take a little while for the slideshow to start running.
