We have e-mailed Captain Hinton and asked him to please do take a “survey” and give us more details on this shoaling.
The marker in question (#44), lies south of the westward running channels to Halifax Harbor and Aqua Marina Daytona. All cruisers should proceed past #44, particularly near the time of low water, with the greatest caution.
If ANYONE has more info about the AICW shoaling reported below, PLEASE follow the “Click Here to Submit Cruising News” link at the top, right of this page, and share your information!
In an abundance of caution, we are establishing a Salty Southeast Crusiers’ Net Navigational Alert for these waters, at least until we can acquire additional information!

I noticed shoaling near marker 44 at Daytona beach. I’ll try to do a survey before I leave, but the chart shows deep water while I found it less than 6′ in places — I draw 5′. Was afraid of running aground.
Take care…
Don
