Recently another ship strayed off course and had an accident. This time right here in the middle of our country. The M/V Delta Mariner which carries parts for our space program from Alabama to Florida picked the wrong span to pass under of the Hwy 68/80 bridge over Kentucky Lake. Anyone who has done the loop has passed under this bridge located right next to Kenlake Resort & Marina. A place we stayed with Tourist for a night this past autumn.
Ky. Expedited Bridge Replacement Program
The bridge was built in 1932 and is slated for replacement in the upcoming years. I'm guessing this will move that project forward slightly.
Fortunately no one was on the span when the impact occurred and little damage was done to the ship. I'm guessing however there may be a couple of crew positions open on the Mariner! Interested parties may apply at Lowestbidder.gov/mariner/capt.

Now that's going to require a lot of paperwork and answering nosey questions!
