Cruising Plan 2017
The plan for 2017 is to cruise up the Canal du Rhone au Rhin  to Mulhouse, then Colmar ,then take the Rhine to Strasboug .
Then turn left along the canal de la Marne au Rhin to Nancy ,Toul to Vitry le Francois picking up the Canal lateral a la Marne to Epernay
We will then retrace our steps to Vitry but then continue on the canal de la Marne a la Soane via Chaumont back to St Jean de Losne

We now leave the canal du Rhone au Rhin and head north on the Grand Canal  d'Alsace and the River Rhine
to your portside Germany to  your starboard
Day 11 Niffer Kembs to Breisach 3locks and 41k to Biesheim
We might then take the excursion to Colmar and back  23k 3locks otherwise we enter the Rhine with heavy industrial traffic
