MOST of the bay is 10 to 30 feet. The ship channel is up to 60 feet.

Being an inshore map, I'd bet it's in feet.

But there should be a legend in an upper corner with the depths.

Thanks Jim ,

I looked the map over well i thought but i now found a small box stating the depths are in feet.
I knew there wasn't 35' x 6' in the bay but never saw a chart measured in feet.
Thanks Mike
