Fields Cut
(Statute Mile 575, South Carolina ICW)
The Problem: Severe shoaling has shelved out from the southern and southeastern banks, just north of the Fields Cut/ICW’s intersection with Savannah River
The Solution: favor the northern and northwestern banks as you cruise south and round the last turn to the south, north of Savannah River.

We just went thru this cut and it was 2 hours before low tide. Staying in the center most of the way and favoring the outside a bit around the curves we never saw less than 15.4. This has always been a rough section for us in the past years and it’s great to see it’s fixed, at least for awhile.
