Red River Alexandria- Simsport 1864

It appears as though when Porters fleet departs Alexandria they make fair time in reaching Simsport considering all that was going on around them. Did someone remove the sunken Union ships in the Red River,prior to or during the retreat, or did Porters fleet simply go around them ?
