I've looked up clearance for bridges here in Washington State on our Department of Transportation site.... might check the Florida DOT site.

If you still need it, looks like Vertical Clearance is either 9ft or 15ft. Not sure, there are two clearance notes next to the bridge, one on each side. Could be significant. :shock:
Here's a link this NOAA chart.

Be sure I'm looking at the right bridge, looks shallow north of the bridge with lots of "Stuff" in the water.
Have a good trip.

Once again this group has come thru and proven to be a great source of information.
John, Thank you for the link, that really helped.
I am putting my A27FC into some pretty thin water next week, but that's why I bought her.
I'll post a report when I get back from "Cruisin' the keys"
