Update on ACOE Inlet/AICW Surveys by Robert Sherer
Authors/Cruisers Robert and Ann Sherer published the 2016 edition of their excellent guide and, as they have in the past, the Sherers graciously share their research on Atlantic Waterway inlet intersections with SSECN readers. This update is of a March 12, 2017 report.
Hi Larry,
Here’s an article that might be of interest to your readers. It covers the latest info on all the inlets which I’ve verified in my trip up the ICW this spring. I’ve also included links to charts by the Charleston ACOE covering vital areas such as the Isle of Shoals and others. Here’s the article:

There is even more good news for the spring migration. All of the problem inlets have been dredged, allowing a straight shot through in all cases except New River by Bogue Sound where a zigzag course was mapped out by the ACOE around a newly formed shoal. Even with the dredging, there are a few things to watch out for which is covered in the article.
I’ve also included for the first time charts put out by the Charleston ACOE. They have reformed and now publish surveys with more detail on depths and in full color. Charts as far south as Port Royal as now linked with coverage of the Isle of Shoals, Dawho River, Ashepoo, and other interesting areas.
