The Cheatham Lock. You can see the rails that pull barges that get broken up for the tows.
We left Nashville after saying goodbye to Sydney. Since the current was in our favor we were making a big push to get back to Green Turtle Bay. We left at 8:00 and after the Cheatham Lock we were able to get to Clarksville by 4:00 pm. It was a 57.4 NM run. After a pump out we got to our slip and relaxed and prepared for an early start the next day.
A pelican along the way.
On Thursday, we left at 6:50 since there was no fog and made a run for Green Turtle Bay. After 83.6 NM and 20 knot winds we made it at 6:20 pm. It was a looong day. Underway 11.5 hours. We were happy to be at the dock.
We were met by David and Lynn from Knot Fast. We were happy to see them as we hadn't since Buffalo. We made arrangements to meet up with them at Grand Harbor where we are also meeting Jackpot and New Hope. It will be nice to see Jack and JoAnn, and Brenda and Sonny.
