Important NoticeThere was an incident in 2021 in which there were four fatalities on the weir described on page 120. This tragedy occurred when the river was in full flood and the water levels were off the scale. The description is essentially correct (if a bit lighthearted in the light of what happened) in reasonable water levels, but the authors would underline the suggestion that the weir be inspected before setting off.
