A brief diversion from the usual videos of my route around the canals today because - due to popular demand - I hereby present a video which attempts to demonstrate how I go through locks on my own.

Various people have asked how you do it but please note I certainly don't claim to be an expert - I've only been properly boating for a few weeks - so this is just my knowledge of it to date.

All (constructive) comments and suggestions on solo locking are welcome.
