Aloha Riptide,
Welcome aboard! I've always wanted to try the Tenn Tom and points North of that. Of course, itd be a much easier trip coming down the current.
Kind regards,

Hello and welcome! As a few of us here aren't in the U.S. - what is Tenn Tom? and what does your mast height have to do with it? Are there bridges you have to negotiate that make this a problem? Always love reading about new places and how people cope with the associated problems. Good luck.

It;s the way it works. You start out with a lot of good questions but as you go on you find a lot of answers but after you settle into it more questions come up after you get the answers. If it's new, that is the way it is. There really is a lot here already. For the rest post more questions.
