If you go, run normal up past the water plant, then veer to the WV side. There's a couple chunks of granite that stick out on the MD side below the turn and a bunch of other aluminum painted rocks in that area. Aim for the center of the swirls and you'll feel the hull lifting when you run over the ridges. Pucker factor is pretty high the first couple times.
With that hull I'd recommend just cruising at displacement speed up through there and keep you eyes open for how the chutes work. No drama. At the quarry cut you'll want to stay on the MD side 50' off the bank. You can always idle through the cut if you start at the under canal drainage tunnel and go 45` away from the bank until the nose of your boat passes the rocks on the MD side, then scoot the arse end around so you are 45` towards the bank. The cut is about 5' deep and 8' wide but there's rock above and below it so you should zig zag through it. Then it's another couple easy miles to the bottom of the islands where it can get pretty dramatic.
There's a ton of different bottom types to fish through there. The place has character.
