Highway 17 Bridge (North) is a public boat ramp in Horry County, South Carolina, on Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway. From here SeaStatus scores 7 waters: Coastal waters from Cape Fear NC to Little River Inlet SC out 20 NM, Coastal waters from Little River Inlet to Murrells Inlet SC out 20 NM (Area 3 of 6), Coastal waters from Little River Inlet to Murrells Inlet SC out 20 NM (Area 5 of 6), Coastal waters from Little River Inlet to Murrells Inlet SC out 20 NM (Area 4 of 6), Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (Segment 4 of 6), Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway, and 1 more.
The main water here is Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway. Rivers are scored mostly on wind and current. Wave height is not part of the score, because a river has no real sea state; visibility and comfort make up the rest. Wind, and waves where it reports them, come from NDBC buoy 41029, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 8660166, Nixon Crossroads, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 80.9 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
