Note: Much of this data has been passed on from earlier sailors. These waypoints have been used by several dozen boats to my knowledge with out any incident. Of course the usual cautions apply.
Note 2: The greatest hazard to navigation are the number of drift nets that may span a large portion of the river and may float free with the tide or be anchored on one end. They are usually tended by a boat at one end, but no always.
