    Good afternoon
    I have to take a trawler through the ICW headed for Islamorada coming from the south through the Bahia Honda Bridge. My clearance is 18'. Chart says fixed bridge at 20". Will I get under or should I take alternate route?

    Why bother? Just take the Moser Channel bridge…

    Tides in the keys usually run 1.5 to 2’ so even at low tide Bahia Honda will be too tight.
