Never said I needed it, but there are other reasons for having them out there. Such as bridge tenders that lie. But I wouldn't expect you to understand.

seems like we never make this bridge in the daylight, and i cant recall anybody getting lined up this well. usually, we end up on the left descending and and have to flip off. well done.

@rhymenocologist thanks man

when we make this bridge, if we are more then 600 feet with emptys, we always get tug service to face up on the head and guide us through...so much easier....

@shinerun1

nothing hard about it....never use an assist boat here north or south bound

@riverider722 hey i was just wondering if you could tell me what you did to get to where you are now. I'm interested in the career and i didn't know if you could give me some advice on it.

Thanks
