I looked it up, while the average knots for river flow is north of 1-like it is currently (no pun intended) the high flow in spring flooding can roil the water between 6-7. And yes....it can be challenging to hold a position in that. Smaller boats do it with ease. But that is the extreme not the...

When the water is being released at the dam in the spring I'd guess north of nine knots. Wind can play a big role as well. I have a Mercury. Would a 20 horse be too much?
Thank you all for the posts. It's clear to me, I'll need to take the trip when I have more time and experience. It is on my bucket list. Thanks for the wealth of information that is the hallmark of this community.
Well, I have decided that I would like a 3/4 ton 4x4 with some kind of cab & at least a 6'1/2 box, under 150,000 miles for under $15,000 here in the mid west. I know I'm not asking for much. If anyone has a line on that, feel free to Im me

Would love to talk to anyone familiar with the provenance of the boat.
Hey guys. At the head of the pandemic I went ahead with my plans for nautical distancing, hats off to wefings in apalachacola, and bought an '07 CD 25. It Took me seven years of searching this sight and others, and ten seconds once I saw her.
Now I'm looking for a truck to tow her. I have a...
A couple of questions. I am replacing a anchor rode and chain on a 25. She has a lewmar 700. The previous anchor was a delta wing anchor. It didn't seem to hold well in the mud, I'm thinking of moving to a claw anchor but I am conserved about its ability to self launch as the geometry looks...
Ok. I've been around this sight enough to know there are more than a few sailors on board. My question. I need to replace the shrouds on my 11' Lockly Newport blue crab. The shroud length is 13' but the mast is 16'. I'm having a hard time identifying a 13' shroud. Do I need to be searching based...
