As Sky pointed out, you can see our route via that link. A lot of people (who live in the USA) have no idea of how much of our country you can see via the river system. I’ve seen more by boat than I have by land.
I can board a boat at my dock in Tennessee and go pretty much anywhere.

Re: Stuart, FL To Racine, WI On A 60MY
Got back to the boat Monday and got a late start out yesterday morning. Spent the night on the hook which had a hard time staying put, but we didn’t go too far.
Looks like we’ll have to literally cut this arch off the boat. Long story, but it just wasn’t meant to come off after some previous work by the PO. We’re talking 5200 and fiberglass. No biggie as it needs to be hinged anyway, but this isn’t the best time or place to be doing such things. Any suggestions for this part of the world would be welcomed. Dave is making calls before our service runs out again.Randy Register - Kingston, TN

Re: Stuart, FL To Racine, WI On A 60MY
Can you pull wire in between the surfaces to break the arch loose?

Re: Stuart, FL To Racine, WI On A 60MY
I tried everything to get my arch loose so I could get it to the shop to hinge it. We ended up ripping some of the fiberglass loose on one side removing it. The wire trick didn't work neither did a hot putty knife. It looked like we were making progress and we would have probably gotten it, but the crane was charging by the hour so we probably hurried it a bit too much.
If they cut it, make sure you measure it on both sides and get a good straight cut so its easier to make the hinge later.Sky Cheney

Sky, did you do the hinge or have someone do it for you?

Re: Stuart, FL To Racine, WI On A 60MY
I did it. I cut it with a skill saw then had my wife's cousin weld in the hinge. Then I faired and primed it and had the yard paint it.
