I don't think anyone will know - I don't think Scottish Canals publish dimension restrictions

I am hoping to take a Halmatic Rogger 35 Sailing Boat from West to East Coast of Scotland via the Glasgow Edinborough route.
Length and Beam should be no problem.
I estimate Height clearance with rigging down at about 12ft.
Does any one know if that would be possible?

Any Comment Welcome.

Diesel is usually found at boatyards.

We don't mark fuel supplies separately.

I can't find any P or D refuelling symbols on my routes. It would be useful to have these indicated.

How do I add the Halte Fluvial de Moret, which is marked on the background map but is not available in the way point/gazetteer menu.
Likewise Samois sur Seine?

That's a good question - I think this needs nick. I think it may well be a JSON structure you need to pass in
