REMINDER: Use Problem Stretch Listings for Planning!
With today’s shallow conditions in many Waterway areas, especially inlet intersections, it is doubly important that you consult the ICW Problem Stretches listed under each state in the right-hand column of SSECN’s Homepage as you plot your float plan. Many of these Problem Stretches carry a recommendation of “mid to high tide only.”
Opening the particular state’s ICW Problem stretches will take you to a list of all problems within that state. Then clicking the link at the bottom of each area’s posting (“Click Here For Updates and To See What Your Fellow Cruisers Are Saying About the …”) will bring you recent updates from other boaters and from Local Notices. Each posting also displays a ChartView of the area.
Above all: take your time, post a good watch forward, keep your eye on the depth finder, follow the markers – not the magenta line and…ENJOY!!
