Every figure below is the shoalest sounding USACE found across an entire reach on a single day. It cannot tell you where in the channel you are, and the bottom moves between surveys. Each number is shown as a band, and the band widens as the survey ages, because that is the honest shape of this data.
Sorted worst-first for a 2 ft draft — a stand-in, not your boat. Computed at mean lower low water, with no tide added.
Since 2026-09-15 the water at Wrightsville Beach has run up to 2.2 ft above and 0.3 ft below prediction, with 200 hours more than a foot off. That is weather that moves sand, and any survey older than it describes the channel as it was before. This looks at the last 31 days only — NOAA serves observed water level 31 days at a time, and this survey is older than that. Weather before 2026-09-15 is unchecked, not clear.
Measured as observed minus predicted water level at one mid-corridor NOAA gauge. It is a proxy for whether the water has been disturbed, not proof that any particular reach has or has not changed.
- No tide was supplied, so every band is computed at mean lower low water — the least water there normally is. Pass ?tide= to band a specific moment.
- These bands were computed against a stand-in draft of 2 ft, not your boat. Add your draft to your profile and they will be worked out for the boat you are actually in.
- 2 corridor channels publish no condition report at all and therefore no depth. They are listed rather than hidden.

This band crosses zero: on the pessimistic assumptions it puts you on the bottom, and on the optimistic ones it clears by 1 ft. A band that wide is not a plan — it is a reason to arrive on a rising tide with someone on the bow. The low edge assumes 4 ft of shoaling since the survey. That shoaling figure is an assumption calibrated on the fastest refill this corridor has published, not a measurement of this reach. The high edge assumes the survey is still exactly true.

The low edge assumes 4.5 ft of shoaling since the survey. That shoaling figure is an assumption calibrated on the fastest refill this corridor has published, not a measurement of this reach. The high edge assumes the survey is still exactly true. A controlling depth is the shoalest point in the whole reach, so most of the channel is deeper — but you do not know where in it you are.
