    On October 24, 2023, Scott and his crew travelled from Clifton Maraina to Safe Harbor Aqua Yacht Marina in Luka, MS encountering some wind along the way. They spent much of their time on Kentucky Lake, transitioning to Pickwick Lake after passing Pickwick Lock. Here, they will stay for three nights before continuing their journey.
