The Mcclellan-Kerr Navigation System allow Tulsan the opportunity
to take a personal recreational or personal pleasure craft all the way
from TULSA OK to Little Rock and the Mississippi River system which
opens up the possibility of taking your personal boat on a river cruise
to these cities Minneapolis/St. Paul,St. Louis,Little Rock,
Louisville Ky,Cincinnati,Memphis,Baton Rouge,New Orleans.

Anybody out there besides me find this a fascinating idea ? if
so let me hear from you , "because this is exactly what I'm going
to do" after I get back "to the Tulsa Oklahoma area".........

I think it's an awesome idea. I've always wondered if that was possible. I don't know if I personally could make a trip like that, but I'd like to think that someone could. It reminds of the old explorer days when they would make huge trips on the river.

It's a fun trip down to Muskogee/Ft. Gibson (or) even Ft. Smith
V-B....Arkansas , anybody could do a small portion of the trip ,and
if you are more adventurous try the Intercoastal Waterways to
Houston Texas...Southern Texas Coast Line (or) Florida (East & West Coast)........

"I'm back again" and that's exactly what I was talking about
the cruises are going to be determined by the "boat owner"
you see I'm Talking about "MY BUCKET LIST" cruise , but I
would like to take a canoe all the way to Little Rock in the
summer time and just camp along the way..maybe Muskogee
Ft. Smith V-B..Arkansas then roll on into Little Rock and turn
around and do it all again on my return trip to TULSA.....

The trip would be really awesome if you had a car waiting for you at the end.

Yes you could leave your car in Houston, Corpus Christi, Tampa/
St. Peterburg, Miami/Ft. Lauderdale, New Orleans, Minneapolis,
Louisville, Cincinnati and use it to "tow the boat back home" after
you had finished sail it down there....Brilliant Idea ...Mileka..

It was a great deal harder to do it in the 1930's hat off to
your mother's cousin and his buddies............
