Date: 14/06/2016
Pls note that pilots informed there was a new measurement at Km 144,9 of Parana Bravo River, measuring 9,80 Meters at datum for a channel width of 80 meters. With today's water height over datum level, vessels are able to sail in 9.90Mts (9.80depth + 0.70water height - 0.60Under Keel Clearance = 9.90). Usual water height for this area is arnd 1 meter, therefore the expected draft could be around 10,20 meters. However, the draft in this area is affected by tides and winds and should be checked daily.
