Time: Approx: 4pm 4-11-08 ( a couple hours prior to low tide)

Place: New ProCoII boat dock.

Water depth at dockside: 3.2ft


Lee has confirmed that someone in a sailboat got stuck the first
weekend the dock was open but wasn't aware of any trouble since. He
also confirmed that at extreme low tide, the dock is sitting on(in)
the mud.

You have been warned.

Better get someone in to dredge it to at least six feet at low tide.
The main dock at our summer club was a little better than this. At low tide
we had to take the Mirage in bow first to discharge people/belongings.
Climbing over the bow pulpit and jumping down to the dock got old fast.

A "Tide" Watch?

Sure. There are "tide clocks," too.

Here's a tide watch for surfers:

I have a nice tide clock just inside my homes entry door.
It was presented to me as a retirement gift from my union local for years of
service.... mostly as treasurer.

Sure is... and very handy on the East Coast with our semidiurnal tides.
Not sure if they work as well on the Pacific coast. (diurnal tides??)
