285A The most unusual narrowboat cruise I've ever been on (Part 1 of 2)

I was invited to take part in a trip that very few narrowboats are able to enjoy, along the "Cambridge Backs" - the river Cam running through all the historic university colleges. For most of the year the waterway is forbidden to powered craft but in winter, with permission, you can take a narrowboat. The trip is in two parts, this being the first is the voyage from Ely to Cambridge; part 2 is the trip along the Backs themselves.
