Follow the Bob423 track for 8.4 MLLW. The Bob423 track goes down the middle of the 100 ft wide channel.

There's only one added buoy here. The Bob423 track goes around the problem area. Snow's Cut (MM 295 to 297) was surveyed by the Army Corps of Engineers while I was at Carolina Beach State Park Marina in mid March, 2024. There's lots of shoaling in this area so follow the Bob423 track if you come through at low tide.

7.8 MLLW on the latest Bob423 track. It is not "on top of" R172a, it's been moved.

Shoaling at the northern temporary red which was marked just "172" has progressed to the point where the green mark is just about on top of the Bob423 track. Deviate to the southeast side of the track to stay clear of the shoaling and remain in a minimum of 13 feet of water MLLW.
