Where you gonna head? Heading East is shallower than heading West and out the cut.salty tiger wrote:I plan on launching out of Lanark Saturday morning. Will the tide (-.5) be an issue in a bay boat? I probably draft around 14-18".
. I'll wait and see what the wind is doing that morning before deciding. I've been out of there a few times with lower tides in my skiff, I just wasn't sure if I could do the same in a bay boat.I didn't know there was rock in Lanark. Would you be kind enough to give more detailed info on it's location? I run WOT east of the ramp all of the time. I would hate to have to call Capt Joel again. Thank youMudDucker wrote:I had to drag my duck boat out of there once, but it was a -1 tide. Definitely be careful going east. Need to hug the shore and look out for the one big rock close to shore east of the ramp.
Sorry, I didn't mark it with GPS. It is about a 1 mile east from the market and it is marked with a white pvc pipe.Salty Gator wrote:I didn't know there was rock in Lanark.

No, this a single post closer to shore. The double poles mark a small channel through a sand hump.Redbelly wrote:Is that the spot where you go between two pvc pipes ?MudDucker wrote:Sorry, I didn't mark it with GPS.

No, I don't run between them unless there is at least 10 or so inches of tide. I've seen nearly that entire mound out of water. When it is like that I run on the Gulf side of the Lanark reef.hardhead wrote:Hey MD, do you always run between the 2 pvc pipes? I've only been through that area once and avoided the pipes cause I assumed they were marking something shallow.
