Is it possible to do the loop single handed?
I have a 30 Mainship Pilot and I am thinking of doing = the loop, from Lake
Ontario to New Orleans this summer and would like to know if anyone has done
it single handed.

Harry,
Bob DeGroot gave you good advice.
I have done the entire Miss. River from Cairo to the Gulf.
Turn out at the Tenn. River or if you wish to do the Miss. Continue down it
past Memphis and Greenville, Ms---the only two marinas on the river!
There are precious few stops on this reach. We rather enjoyed it as we are
not marina and services types. Had a good trip. See it and the possible
anchorages on our web site.
Also an article on the Atchafalaya river.
DEFINITELY turn out of the Ms. At the Old River Lock above Baton Rouge into
the Atchafalaya river down to the ICW. Then go east to New Orleans. Between
Old River and New Orleans there is zip and no safe places to even anchor for
the night. NO docks at all and no services.
For more info get back to me off line.
