That's what I assumed that it meant. However, I regularily deal with 12m
(39 ft) tides - so 8' above MLW would the the average height less than 2
hours after low water.

If you said 2' higher than MHW, then I could see the problem.

Oh. I'm a bit 'edgy' today. Still have no word on how my boat faired. I
believe the tidal range for the Chess. Bay is only 2' (?). So 8' above even
MLW is a big deal here.

Scotty,

It is that Surge that has me worred, on here in the NW.

I remember those Surges when I lived back East. Those shallow bbodies of
water would lift boats above those pilings that they were moored to and
as the water went out, the boat would be impailed by the pilings as they
settled. Hope this isn't the case with our group.

Doubled and trippled the lines, added more
fenders, plus a big round one at the stern.

With that overhang that was a good idea.

You are a dufus of the highest order. I haven't purchased the boat
yet. And, you know nothing about boats. If you did, you would
realize that this "40-year-old boat" could sail rings around you and
your hunter piece of crap. Actually, you could be on a 68 Swan and
that would be true, so my previous sentence isn't saying much.

I wouldn't give you a plug nickel for your dink, since it's probably
so waterlogged and sagging from being overloaded with your weight
that the only thing it's good for is a kiddy wading pool.

6' above the normal HW wouldn't be such an issue where the normal range is

Yes, those of us with a functioning brain knew that. I believe that
charted depths are given at MLW and it's up to the sailor to know the tide
table and apply it. Maybe that's why that site gave it that way?

Around here, heights are given above chart datum, which is traditionally the
same as LAT. This can vary from one port to another. Today, at Low Water,
Portsmouth will have 2m (6'6") above CD.

Found the 'old' chart. It reads '' controlling depths in feet at Mean Low

How old is that chart? All of my US charts from the recent past use MLLW as the datum for
soundings. I even checked in my Chesapeake ChartKit to see if they were different.

OK - Here's a quiz: What's the meaning of LLWLT?

BTW, I thought of commenting on the "8 feet above MLW" also - around here we have 10 foot
tides and flooding is measured above MHW
