Andy pretty much nailled it...the slowdown around i-65 is the worst section...although ya just never know! There is a section in Michigan as well with one lane down...I think exit 4 thru 12...

I just towed my big tug boat through all of that at 75mph wide load. Nothing to worry about. I was in Jenison(Grand Rapids area).

And A Eletric Gate so You Can put your boat there but if you leave to go up on top you better have someone there to let you back in , or swim for it , or climb back down the old way.
