Spring new moon and full moon generally. I believe there's also a somewhat
rare event called a proxigeen tide (sp?)... happens when the moon is at its closest point and a new? moon. (moon is between sun and earth, so that must be right). -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Bart Senior" .@. wrote in message ... What time of year do spring tides have the greatest extremes? |

oops. Jon is right.
The proxigean spring tide is when a new moon is at max perigee, called the proxigee. Happens once every 1.5 years. SBV "Capt. JG" wrote in message ... Spring new moon and full moon generally.
