You can get into Pringle, no way into Contee.
Most boats run a lot shallower than they draft, how much do you need to run in?

Don't really know the last boat was a flat bottom pro master 185 with a 150 Johnson 6 inch hydro jack plate never had Amy problems with it but I only go about once or twice. A year now been to the army hole and the j hook and fish oil field cut by the coast gaurd station and the pass I was guessing a 12 inch draft would be ok but I know it changes with every storm and a little with every tide I haven't been in 3 years hope things are still pretty much same

Thanks, it's a homemade aluminum scooter with the 90 jet. It's just not fair where I can run that thing.
