This inlet is short of markers. You can go around the island or save a half hour at high tide and go this way.
Yeah, for some reason, the Northern side of the inlet doesn’t have many markers. The South side, is clearly marked. That’s why I posted my disclaimer earlier about the shoals / moving sand bars...
By the time I saw where you were headed, it was 2 hours after you posted “15 miles to go”....

In the home stretch! Looks like its gonna be a great day weather wise - ENJOY!

Random Fact - just south of the Jetty has been named - “Shark Bite Capital of the World”. Something with the current, causes bait fish to school very close to shore, and its a popular surf/swim spot

Hey @Liveto99 Are you able to crew on a new adventure? This thread just started on FB and a lot of replies for the opening, hurry up, you may be able to navigate your way on. And don't forget your friends if you get on. Pictures, or it did'nt happen. ;)
