    Tide boards showed 63.5, we are 63ft including antenna. We had less than 6in to spare. That's why we always slow to a crawl...never know how accurate the boards are.

    Slowed down going through at high tide but following the track, I never saw less than 11ft of depth

    We went under this bridge 30min away from Low Tide. I wish I could upload a picture to show the boards...the 65 mark is almost covered by slime but the water was to the bottom of the 6th fender board which would be just under the 65ft mark. We have an air draft of 63.5ft and we cleared with a foot above the whip.

    Doing recon for our upcoming trip south, I went over the swing bridge and saw 62ft on the southbound boards at high tide. Yikes. We wouldn't make that.

    We came through at mid-tide and southbound tide boards showed 65.5ft. Looking up, it seemed like there might have been more.
