depending on which way the wind's already blowing, get some help from the
shore convection during the day.

Our rule was "sail close enough that you can see the smiles on the faces of
the people on the beach"...

Somebody here likely has, also, a US Navy daily report on the stream's (and
counter currents) speed and location, via graphical representation (not with
lat/long specs). I used it a lot in our up-and-downs the last couple of
years but not doing that now, have lost track of the links...

The trick is to track your speed over the mud to see if your course
needs adjusting. If he has a boat which can clear 65' he can also go
inland.
