Missed it


Adam has been waiting months to see the mv. Hoosier State, a new AEP towboat. It finally came through our area. It went up the river at night and passed us tonight after dark. Oh well, maybe it will come back when the sun shines.

Meanwhile, according to shipbuildinghistory.com, Crounse should take delivery soon of a new boat, the Jackie Englert, if it hasn't already. Maybe it will get up this way every now and then as the Linda Reed and the Paula Ruble do.

Jackie Englert came up the Tenn-Tom & Tennessee river to Paducah, according to the lock report. Has not moved in a couple of weeks. She is the last of their new boats.

D'oh! I didn't think to check that route. Thanks.

The Jackie Englert was at Paducah Crounse Dock when I was down there a couple of week past.
