Good morning,
I am writing to ask any mariner who has cruised the Florida east coast ICW
from Fernandina to Stuart Florida. I have been reading updates thru
Waterway Guide and the news does not sound good. Green/Red markers missing
or hazards in channels, bridges only partially opening, Daytona Beach (I
think) a bridge bulkhead collapsed and now submerged in channel, marinas
that are open have limited or no dock space for transients because of
displaced boats. And fuel prices are on the rise.

We head south starting Sunday. Hoping Maria did no damage to NC ICW. Anyone
making their way south your experience share greatly appreciated.

Thank you. Fair winds,
Ann
