A higher than usual tide (9.5m) had caused a lot of debris to wash into the channel. This included large tree branches and stumps so areas of flotsam had to be avoided. Hence the boat goes a little further downstream than usual to avoid turning into the debris near the mouth of the lock. Watch the lock keeper on the wall giving guidance, the helmsman would instinctively want to turn into the lock much sooner than directed by the lock keeper which would result in the boat, washed sideways as it turns across the current, striking the downstream lock wall.
