Steve, any idea what sort of draft could get up there at high water?

The last thing that past there was the barge with the bridge pylon and that was about high water but I could not see the draft of it.I was told that it hit the bottom on it's way up a couple of times and they struggled to get it round Laing's corner.I will try and find out the depth of water that is there now.
