You should be OK down to NC, but don't go the Dismal Swamp direction. And watch out for some (many) of the little marinas - entrances do get shoaled up. And, don't go through Georgia on the ICW.

There are a couple places I can't get through, such as knapps narrow at Tilghman Island, but generally the draft is not a problem.

Most marinas in the bay can support 7' draft but some gunkholes and small tributaries will be harder. I draft 6.5' and have learned to have a bit more attention to detail regarding the shoal areas. Coming out of Annapolis and sailing the main areas of the bay you should be fine.

I am looking hard at a 40 C&C. She comes with the tall mast and a 7' draft, and surveys very well. She will be berthed in the Annapolis area. I work in Annapolis a couple of weeks out of the year and am looking for a live aboard that I can sail. I am hearing mixed signals about that draft. How hard will a 7' draft be in that area? I have a home in Morehead City, NC. How difficult will that draft be in the ICW? I know I will have to pay attention to the charts and depth meter, but is it an impossible issue or just requires greater attention. I am willing to admit that I have a boat crush on her. Your comments will be greatly appreciated. -----Original Message----- From: CnC-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Curtis Sent: Tuesday, June 11, 2013 7:19 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Stus-List Staying in the family Hey Paul, Good buy it sounds like... My C&C 30MK1 are getting to know each other very now. Getting a new boat well new older boat is quite an experience. You helped me out on some post in the past, as I was learning the layout and handling of my boat. Thanks for that. I have seen the Tangerine on U-Tube titled "C&C 24 close reaching" Great boat! Good luck with the new big sister. Many years of happy times are sure to follow. Cheers and have fun On 6/11/13, Paul Baker <[email protected]> wrote: > I sold Tangerine, my C&C24, about a month ago.
