Lockwoods Folly Inlet

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Superimposing the channel marks for the Lockwoods Folly Inelt onto the latest Google Earth Image shows the convoluted channel to get around the every shifting shoals. I used the Image history capability of GE to show how this channel has changed in the last 25 years.

    Back in the 90s when they closed it going around the Point east...that was some great fiahing in the old channel.

    There’s really no channel in it now

    Agree with the absence of a channel. Why do they keep wanting to make it go west? My long-term memory had it coming out and turning a bit east to run down the Oak Island/Long Beach shore before heading out to sea. The shrimp boats used it. The Blue Water Princess used it. Lots of boats used it. All the shoaling in the ICW ought to be telling them something. Maybe it guarantees their jobs. In the past I used it all the time. Now, I make the long run to Southport. It would be great to have a wave & current expert weigh in on this nonsense.

    @@deanfulford69 May your tribe increase. Surely there are more folks who understand the “folly” of the current treatment of the Inlet.
