Good Report from Ashepoo-Coosaw Cutoff, AICW Problem Stretch Mile 517
There are two Ashepoo-Coosaw Cutoffs, north and south. Either can be a problem stretch between dredgings due primarily to shoaling, but this report concerns the area around marker 177 at the northern end of the southern cutoff, which has earned the Problem Stretch designation. The two cutoffs connect the Ashepoo and Coosaw Rivers and have a 5-7 ft tidal range. Our thanks to Blades Robinson for this good-news report.
NO PROBLEM – Depth Report from Ashepoo-Coosaw Cutoff AICW Problem Stretch, Statute Mile 517
We just transited over the five foot “blue shoal” depicted on the chart and the shoal is GONE! Our water depth was 27’ where the shoal was located on the chart and came up to 13’ before and after the indicated shoal. Apparently it has been dredged.
