Hi Peyton, what's going on? I just tested downloading the files in an incognito window and they both downloaded fine. What browser are you using? What happens when you click on the links?
Hello, nice trip !! We are in Georgetown and we want to go to Ragged Island. Our draft is 6.9.
Do you know if Comer Channel is depth enough for us?
Sorry for the late reply. The Comer Channel should be okay for you, just make sure to go at high tide and stay on the suggested Explorer Charts route.
