Basic navigation. The Red buoy needs to be on your Right side when you're Returning from the Ocean. Red on Right on Return.

Ok got it thanks for the info. I have only been on lakes with my boat. Can you get to the Mississippi river from lake Ponchartrain? I think it would be cool to ride by New Orleans.

You can but I've never done it. Very few pleasure boats on the Mississippi down here.

Any Idea if there is an open container law for boats?

Just FYI for the out of town guys. There is free trailer parking at the Riverstop Chevron in Springfield. But, if they fill up or if anyone wants secure trailer parking behind a fence, a friend of mine that owns a mini-storage said he will accept boat trailers for that weekend. $30 Friday - Sunday or $40 Thursday - Sunday. Pm me for further info. First come first served.

Open container law does not apply to boats. Hope to see you out there. Got a pic of your boat?
