SPEEDTRIPLE Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Hi all, can anybody tell me the times of Low water slack at Gt Yarmouth this Sat / Sun and Tues / Wed`y. I`m hoping to go North either Saturday afternoon or Sunday morning, and back for Oulton Broad on Wednesday late afternoon. What are the tides doing, and are we thwarted yet again?. It seems every time we`re afloat, the tides are always against us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CambridgeCabby Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Cannot give you Wednesday/Thursday yet as updates on a Sunday for the following week these were taken from the Aweigh App most worthwhile downloading Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YnysMon Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 I use this site (see link below). It gives you a chart for the week showing the tides at various places around the Broads. Slack at Yarmouth is roughly an hour after low water. This site shows low water at Yarmouth being at 04:49 and slack at 05:49, a bit later than the app above...probably because gives low water on the Bure near the Yacht Station rather than the Yare. http://www.norfolk-broads.org/tides/tide_report.asp 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marshman Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 I use the AA one on my phone but its a bit limiting when trying to plan so I always use the other one everyone uses if I am planning going anywhere. I am not sure , on the Broads either that I trust the 6 hrs flood and ebb times as shown - I prefer to assume for most places, a 5hr flood and a 7 hr ebb but thats just my preference I am not sure of the source of the AA one so on balance would check it with the other source - however always remember tides cannot read tables !!!!!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPEEDTRIPLE Posted September 10, 2019 Author Share Posted September 10, 2019 Thanks for the info folks, it looks like we could be going straight from Brundall up round to the North on Saturday with those tides. Getting back means either an early cruise, or very late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPEEDTRIPLE Posted September 10, 2019 Author Share Posted September 10, 2019 So by Wednesday, high and low tides should be approx 3 hours later, which would mean high tide on Wednesday would be around 2-2.30pm which will suit us just fine. Looks like we wiil NOT be pushing the tide back across Breydon for once. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regulo Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Why would you be pushing the tide across Breydon? If you arrive at the Yacht Station at slack (or a little before on the last of the Bure ebb), the tide is already flowing in across Breydon.

I`m trying to find out whether we`re going to have to get up very early, as we need to be at Oulton Broad YS for the early - mid afternoon.
