We will be crossing the Gulf approximately April 5 and are looking for a crossing buddy. Our speed will be about 10 knots and we plan on a direct crossing from Apalachicola through Government Pass to Clearwater. Presently we are at Dog River Marina in Mobile, AL after finally making it down the Tenn Tom after weeks of delay due to the high waters on the rivers. We weathered the floods at Demopolis, AL and watched all the trees floating down the river. To date we have logged 725 miles on our Loop which we began at Chattanooga, TN.
