Narrative:
We were climbing to 2;000 departing opf. We climbed to 2;100 to evade another aircraft. We were advised by opf tower that we were entering bravo airspace. The current miami sectional depicts the floor of bravo airspace to be at 3;000. This conflicts with opf tower's interpretation of bravo airspace. I then discovered that a letter of agreement exists that supersedes the miami sectional depicting the 2;000 ft bravo floor. It is my opinion that the FAA miami sectional should be updated to reflect this 2;000 ft floor to prevent another occurrence.
