Checking my digital maps. There's another way around that island, to the East, called Kent Narrows. Appears to be about 200 yards wide. I wonder how high that bridge is? How deep is the water?
I live two or three miles west from the Rt. 50 (an interstate hwy) bridge over the Bay at Kent Island, the next bridge south of the FSK bridge and far north of the next bridge to the south down by Norfolk. Our bridge is four miles long, and the shipping channel underneath it is wide and deep. What you're referring to, Kent Narrows, is the narrow shallow channel of water that separates Kent Island (a damn big island it is) from the land mass of Maryland's Eastern Shore. It isn't navigable by ships. It's the province of sport boats and fishing/crabbing boats. For years the bridge over the Narrows was a drawbridge but is now supplemented by a permanent bridge which isn't very high off the water.
