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. I've made every mistake in the book except sink the boat. Why not learn from my mishaps and avoid all the potential misadventures on your own cruise? My guide covers what I've learned about cruising the ICW over the past ten years and how to avoid the mud in shallow areas. What's new in the 2019 Edition:- 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. - I've added two new chapters: Basic Knowledge on the ICW that all cruisers should know and further study, if desired, in the ICW University chapter covering nine topics to enhance your ICW experience.- GPX routes and tracks have been greatly expanded as further navigation aids. - All sections on cruising resources and recommendations have been updated. There are lots of new products out there that will ease your way south, why not take advantage of them?- 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. All reviews are helpful to other boaters considering a trip down the ICW.
