Re: Mobo's cause mayhem on tidal Thames today

This flotilla came up through Twickenham just after the Richmond tidal gate opened. If they were in Putney at around 2pm then it took them less than an hour to cover 9 nautical miles.

Presumably they slowed down near Richmond Lock, so they were probably averaging over 10 knots for most of the trip. Only twice the PLA speed limit!
