NEVER leave on a full tide in thse conditions.Leave enough hours BEFORE
high tide so you get CLEAR of the shallows without risk of grounding with a receding tide.


All that venom for one nugget worth reading. Better than most posts,
that lack even a shred of boating content. Run aground at high tide on
the wrong day of the lunar month, and you can be there for two weeks.
They call that getting 'neaped' and big ships have done it.
