Port Everglades Inlet clearance

Port Everglades is the inlet that makes this city a yacht town. The channel is a commercial product: depth in the forties on the approach edge in our graph, beam for ships, and a traffic pattern that does not yield to a sportfish in a hurry. From Harbor Beach you are minutes from the sea buoy. From Las Olas you still owe 17th Street. From the New River you owe every span this guide names.

The waterway graph treats Port Everglades as an inlet node (id 1), not a low bridge. Bottleneck for most residential programs is never the inlet itself — it is the path to it. We still give the inlet its own URL because buyers search it, insurance desks name it, and Bimini deliveries start here. Commercial traffic, cruise ships, and a jettied mouth are the operational facts. Related marinas: Bahia Mar, Pier 66, Hilton Fort Lauderdale Marina. Trace any dock on the map; Dijkstra ends at this mouth or the Harbor Beach ocean cut. Depth here does not save a 4.5-foot Victoria Park lateral.
