Florida Keys - Rocky Channel vs Big Spanish Channel (ICW)
Is anyone familiar with "Rocky Channel" going north from the
Marathon/Bahia Honda area? It looks like it has deeper water than Big Spanish Channel which is a little further west. Rocky Channel appears to have no navigational aids however which means that you would need to rely strictly on the accuracy of the charts and/or eyeball navigation. Does anyone ever go through there, and if so, is it OK for 5 1/2 feet of draft? If the chart can be believed, it looks like you could carry 7 feet all the way up to the gulf. Are there any coral heads or shoaling to worry about? |
