Where's the water? ..and how to get it back - Refilling a pound.

If there is one thing a boat needs, it's water. Sometimes on canals pounds can become empty or low through water leakage, faults, or vandalism. This video hopes to show that with care you can refill empty pounds yourself.
This was filmed on the Atherstone Lock flight starting at lock 5.
Note. Please don’t under take refilling the pounds yourself if you are at all unsure of the problems that can befall you. Call the CRT Emergency line.
Should you need to run water do not rely on the bywashes to carry that much water they are not design for this use. Use paddles and ensure that more water isn’t entering the next pound than that can cope with. Flooding can cause serious damage and you could be liable for damages.

I learn so much from your videos, despite having boated for a few years. Thank you.

Getting everything back in water can be a day's work if you're alone. I bet you had a good workout. Good job!

Good job you did there with the locks.
Have a nice weekend, best regards from Norway

Had the exact same problem on that flight a year ago. CRT are aware of it but do nothing to fix it. 😡 A local told me it happens all the time.
