I used try to limit entries in this blog to boating related actives and overall things kind of moved to Facebook. Now back here after selling Degae, but continuing to travel. Stay tuned.

Day 8 - Bobby’s Fish Camp to Sumter Landing

We left Bobby’s Fish camp relatively early and considered the possibility of stopping in Demopolis for fuel only and proceeding to an anchorage called Sumter Landing, a Corps of Engineers maintained camp ground and ramp. This included two locks and 150 statute miles. The entrance is extremely shallow and one must stay to the center. We showed .7 feet below our rudder, total depth around 4.7 feet at the entrance, but quickly gained depth once inside.

At mile marker 225 we officially were halfway between the Mobile and the Tennessee rivers.

Dinner was Lean Cuisine, micro-waved by Chef Hopper
