You asked WHAT IT MEANT!!!

Rubbish!
As usual, you are talking complete nonsense.

You didn't know a basic sailing term!! Can you even sail???


What makes you think that I didn't know what MWL meant?
Once again, you display your complete ignorance.

If you knew anything at all about tides, then you would realise that my
question was totally valid.

Found the 'old' chart. It reads '' controlling depths in feet at Mean Low
Water (MLW)''. AND; depths reffered to soundings (MLW)''.

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
