My 30 minute sail today
We got away today.y at 7:30. We had a northwest wind all day today, so that meant wind on our nose the whole time. So we had to motor the whole way. I did manage to use the sails for about 30 minutes, but that was all.The wind was so strong that at one point even with the motor at full throttle we could only go between 1.5 and 3 miles per hour. It's not supposed to be that bad tomorrow. We only made about 35 miles today. But we also had to go through two locks today. One at Kentucky dam, and the other was lock #52 on the Ohio river. We are currently docked at Massac State park in Illinois on the Ohio river. Tomorrow we should make it to the Mississippi river quite easily. Well the Internet here is really slow, so that's all for today.
