A pedestrian/cyclist ferry, possibly automated, is the best solution to this problem. It will be less disruptive to all of the boating traffic, it is more flexible for landing locations on both sides of the estuary since the infratructure footprint is so small. A short boat ride will be a much better experience for users and will in fact become a feature of this solution.
As a boat owner who is up estuary from the major sailing areas any bridge should be at least 100ft above the high tide mark. Please consider the ferry option.
