Ray ,
I was gonna say their should b lot,s of pilot crews around that area who could give some kinda advice :o , not so sure now tho !
Sadly 7 people still missing from this incident " Francis Scott Key Bridge " not sure if they were on the bridge or on the ship :(

their is the " Kent Island Yacht Club " close by the bridge " maybe check their site see if they have any info on it ! or call them their doesn't seem to b any recent info for sailing under it tho most recent info I found was 2014 regarding sailing under it lowest tide depth 5.4 ft I,m sure their has to b some local mac guys who,ve gone thru there ! :)

Thanks John.

I was not expecting a reply from someone diametrically on the opposite side of the continent.
