SC: McClellanville MM 431
- Date Reported: Dec 21, 2024
- Reporter: Bob423
- Source: User
- Description:
Update: 4.9 MLLW as of 11/8/2024 on the Bob423 track.
McClellanville was dredged to 12 MLLW from R35 to G43 but has shoaled. Jeremy Creek, leading to McClellanville, has been dredged to 10 MLLW but has also started to shoal again. The 11/8/2024 USACE survey is shown in Aqua Map with the Bob423 Track. The passage is very narrow for the deepest water, only about 30 feet wide before losing 0.5 to 1.0 feet of depth off the Bob423 track.
The shallowest part of the passage was here, at MM 430.9, at 4.9 MLLW. Stay on the Bob423 track! Note the 30 ft scale, stay on the track!
It is very hard to judge distances to a marker. Here, the best water is 143 feet off G39. Too close and too far finds shallow water. Just follow the Bob423 track.
