What's the C-Dory from Burlington, Iowa?

I just finished my trip from Green Bay to La Crosse, Wisconsin, by way of Lake Michigan, the Illinois and Mississippi rivers, which BTW, also completed my first great loop. I met three other C-Dorys on this one trip, the Osprey, the Not For Hire, and one I didn't catch the name of. They were headed into a lock just as I was coming out, so we couldn't stop to chat. It was a couple who said they were headed back to Burlington, Iowa. I'd like to say hello, and see how their trip was going.
 
Not For Hire is doing two weeks on the Mississippi starting last Friday in Hastings,Mn. I visited with him on a sandbar on the St. Criox. He is Mark from Cadillac, MI. At what lock did you see him? He was going to go at least as far as Dubuque. It is good to see the C-Dories in the middle of America!!! The rest of you are most welcome to check out the historic Mississippi.
 
I saw Not for Hire just a few miles south of La Crosse. The boat I saw at lock 13 (I think) was the one I didn't catch the name of. All I got as they passed by was that they were returning to Burlington, Iowa.
