OH Dam to Downtown Nashville
 
Ok, rookie question here. How long does it take by boat to run from OH dam to downtown Nashville? Also, is it a relatively safe run? I have a 20ft bay boat drafting maybe 16-18 inches. Cruising at 28 mph ish. Thanks for your input!

I have a 19ft Triton with a 175 HP. Its a good 20 minute run wide open. That's if theres not a bunch of debris or barge traffic. Just follow the channel buoys and you'll be fine.

Chip, Myself, Lived in Savannah, Ga. for a number of years Graduated from High School and attended Armstrong.. and my Bride whom I married was from there I know where you are coming from ... Different from Coastal waterways and tides etc .. The Cumberland river is a navigable water way ... Don't worry about depth as long as you stay in the buoy boundaries ... Welcome to FishingTN ... A Great bunch of Guys Here !! <'TK>< :)

Shorter runs if you put in at Heartland, Peeler, or Shelby Park.

Now is not the time to make that run though wait till things settle down water wise

Like said already, please stay off the rivers, and creeks right now, it's not safe. I had 3 guys coming in from Colorado to fish with me this weekend, but I'm trying to get them to change their minds the extremely high waters, and now this cold front.
