End of Day 43:
- 23 travel days
- 15 locks
- 1419 miles
- 1001 gallons of fuel
- Key Learnings:
- Boat is still running well
- Can't find parts for a 30 year old windlass, so installed a new one
- The farther south we go, the nicer the river scenery
- We don't handle continuous 95 degree days well
- Don't assume that they did not use metric anchor chain 30 years ago
- Measure 3 times (not twice) before drilling or cutting (something here about age and memory)
