Bob, I always enjoy and learn something from your posts, keep the faith. I'm sure at least one other person does too. The chocks are great and I have three. but the one on my boat isn't hooked up.

Yeah, Last time I went thru, lock master called us after some 45 minutes and said we could come in now and tie to a Benzene barge or wait 4 hours more. We locked thru tied to the benzene barge.......
Those locks were built in 1919.

Down River. Nobody has much time. Chart says only 84 miles on river from NO to Venice. Lock thru in NO and soon river gets pretty straight. Bad place to drop a hook if you have to tho....and then there's the current coming back.....
All for naught....
