Ed, et al
 I had some problems sending this email.  The problem was on my end. 
 
We did 1-77; my navigator found it to be simpler, and on that first leg we overnighted in Paulson Kentucky.
Question : I am about to purchase a motor, and believe the 20" long shaft to be a good fit; but are there any compelling reason for the extra-long shaft (25") on a Rhodes ?

Caesar:

I was wondering if I had to locate St. Bernard's...

One comment seldom found is a safety/security cable for your motor.  Even if
you leave boat at house with motor on have security cable attached to it and
boat.  Over the years motor mounts have broken, so it would be possible to
loose a motor in deep water.

Contratulations on completed journey...

Did you go up I-77 in North Carolina - Virginia.  How about Donner pass?
