Book Description
I'm known as Bob423 along the ICW and this September will be my 9th trip down the ICW. I've learned a lot, mostly the hard way but it doesn't have to be that way. Why not learn from my mistakes? The guide contains a summary of lessons learned in getting ready for and in traveling the ICW. It is focused on how to safely navigate the shallows of the ICW with marinas and anchorages I've found convenient along the way. This year's edition runs 225 pages, it seems to grow every year. What's new in the 2018 Edition:- Safe passage routes change every year through the shallows of the ICW. The guide provides a full-page chart for each hazard in color with my route in the spring of 2018 shown as a red dotted line. You will know my exact path in finding the depths I report in my guide. - All charts have been redone using Aqua Map's excellent charting database available through either their iPad or Android app. Their charts are updated four times a year, a must on the ICW.- Bridge clearances have been tabulated and shown in graphical format. On my 2018 spring trip northward, I took a photo of the height boards on every fixed bridge. I noted the day and time I passed under each bridge which I used to compute the clearance at high tide and also at 0.0 tide. The results surprised me on how many bridges had less than 65 ft of clearance, even at low tide!- The list of best navigation apps has been changed dramatically from 2017. The new player on the block, Aqua Map, has leaped over competitors in many features (but I still use Navionics too). - More GPX routes have been added for downloading. With Aqua Map, the download of a GPX route could not be simpler.- I Joined Waterway Guide as an On-The-Water Editor, I've updated the Waterway Guide Alert icons for current information as referenced in the guide and will be maintained through the year to reflect current conditions at an Alert location. - All sections have been updated. Products evolve and what was best last year may not be best this year. However, not everything changes and much of the "getting ready" steps for setting out remain familiar from last year.- The eBook is free when you purchase the paper version of the guide. Amazon will recognize if you bought the paper version and will allow the eBook to be downloaded at no charge. All the links you see underlined in blue are active links in the eBook. It's a great time saver in looking up recommendations on apps, marinas, restaurants, and electronics. Thank you for considering the purchase of the guide. The links have been left in blue with an underline. I've posted the active links on my blog page at fleetwing.blogspot.com in the ICW Tips section so you don't have to google anything, just find the link in the list and click. If you purchased the book then the ebook version is free on Amazon.com. Please leave a review on Amazon.com, all reviews are helpful to other boaters considering a trip down the ICW.

Book Description
A trip down the Intracoastal Waterway is the trip of dreams for thousands of cruisers, the goal of a lifetime. But for many of those boaters, familiar only with their own home waters, the thousand-mile journey is full of mystery and potential dangers, as well as beauty and excitement. The new ICW Planning Guide, now in its second year, understands those concerns and walks boaters carefully and clearly through the process, from Mile 0 at Portsmouth, Va., to the ICW s end at Key West, Fla. and up the Gulf ICW to Anclote Key near Tarpon Springs. The guide teaches boaters the skills they will need along the way, like the right way to request a bridge opening, how to transit a lock. There are also plenty of tips and tricks for a painless trip, such learning the Art of the Slow Pass, and how to find the deepest part of the channel by reading the shape of the land. The guide also explains how to plan each day s cruise, gauging bridge openings, optimum times for negotiating the ICW s notorious shallow spots and reaching a good marina or anchorage at the end of the day. In the reference section of the guide, readers will find lots of mileage and inlet maps as well as photos, charts, schedules and clearances for every bridge fixed and opening along the way. Finally, readers will be able to find marinas along the way with the included facilities guide. There is no other ICW planning guide. This is an invaluable one-of-a-kind companion to making those cruising dreams come true. From the editors of Chesapeake Bay Magazine.

Pages : 109
Book Description
I'm known as Bob423 along the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (ICW) and this September will be my tenth trip down the ICW to Key West. This edition consists of only the charts for those who are experienced ICW Cruisers and already know all the basics and desire no additional input on getting ready for the trip south or in outfitting your boat or apps to use. Also not included are the chapters on Basic ICW Knowledge and ICW University where I go more in depth on topics of interest to cruisers. All charts have been updated and redone with Aqua Map's rendition of the Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) survey charts that include my track through the over 100 shallow areas in a blue dotted line and in many cases, a GPX route too so you will know exactly how to safely proceed. Each of the 12 legs of the trip south to Key West is now introduced with a wide area chart showing the hazards ahead with mile markers for planning a day's cruise. GPX routes and tracks have been greatly expanded as further navigation aids. If you buy the paperback book the eBook will be free again this year. It has all the active links so you don't have to look up any of the recommendations I reference in the paperback. I will also publish a page by page list of active links on my blog site at fleetwing.blogsite.com if for some reason you don't want to download the eBook. Thanks for considering the purchase of my guide. The links have been left in blue to show they can be accessed in the eBook with a tap. Please leave a review on Amazon.com.
