Jeff,

>From the Town of Pawley's Island website:

"Pawleys Island is a barrier island less than 4 miles long and mostly 1
house wide, separated from the mainland by a beautiful salt marsh and
accessible by two short causeways"

I've vacationed there for years. At the north end of the island the
Intracoastal is less than 100 feet wide. I don't remember the waterway being
anywhere near 200 meters wide up there. There's your trouble.

Check this Georgetown county GIS map:

Looks to me like it's separated by some type of river/marsh from the 
mainland when I  zoom in on the map on Google.

Plus what's with the Maryland Western Group NA-141 ? They are in Chesapeake 
Bay and not the Atlantic Ocean.

73, Jeff
