From the NOAA Chart , which I can't seem to C&P to show, it looks as though the depth at the bow is at 28 feet.Yes, and I think upthread was a map that showed some of the depths of the port and channel? And there were some areas that were shallower. Including perhaps where the ship’s bow has come to rest? MOO
The designated channel is at 51 feet depth throughout the harbor, maintained by dredging.
You can open the website to view it yourself.

How deep is the water at Baltimore Harbor?
Today, the main channel reaches 51 feet down and 700 feet across. Brewerton Channel was widened further to 50 feet deep and 700 feet wide in 2001. In 2012, the Seagirt Marine Terminal berth also was deepened to 50 feet.
