T_O_A_D Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 That's my Boat. I still wish they'd of moored her at St. Louis in the Mississippi, instead of Pearl. More of us could see her if she was Mainland. I understand the argument of having the beginning and the end in the same place though too. But she would corrode alot slower in Fresh water than Salt though too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadAim Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Is there enough draft for a boot that size up to St Louis? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T_O_A_D Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Now that you mention it, Yes maybe Draft: Design: 34’ – 9.00” @ 54,889 Tons MISSISSIPPI RIVER 45' Deep Draft Crossings Channel Depth Status http://www.mvn.usace.army.mil/ops/odt/deepdra.htm That's the Lock and Dam, so if the main channel was being maintained to that (entirely not sure if it is) the yes just barely. Just think how cool that sucker would look under the Arch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
