Watch depths in Hawk. Charts can be
somewhat misleading in some parts, i.e., off SE end of Vaca Key and
off Key Largo, where channel is narrow and can be shoal, less than
your 6 feet.

My charts show 12 to 20 feet in Hawk Channel. What am I missing?
I don't know what he's talking about either. As long as you stay
between the markers, out of the crab pots, and off the reefs there's
no problem in Hawk Channel with depth.
There IS a problem on the Blackwater Sound to Barnes Sound side of Key
Largo, but that's not Hawk Channel. Or if you go thro Caesar Creek or
something.
As for Vaca Key - the Sister's Creek entrance to Boot Key Harbor might
be a problem for you and I've never done it either. You CAN get
around to the Gulf side of Vaca Key by going through Moser Channel and
there are some shallow spots over there I suppose.
