Gauge boards are not accurate on this bridge. On 11/19/24 we anchored on the NE side for the night because we thought the water was unusually high and we would not clear our 63'2" mast. The next day the height boards still showed 63' on the north side of the bridge. We passed under with great caution as a friend watched from a distance. It appeared we had about one to two feet of clearance. Proceed with caution, but it appears 63' on the gauge boards is actually more like 65'.

Crossed under around mid-tide, but not much tide change here. Our 63' 8" mast and antenna cleared. Wind was south at 30 with 1-1.5 ft waves
