Tide Tables

[JawsOrca]

Good Morning All,

 

I'm confused (easily done). 

 

I can't seem to obtain a coherent tide table from the internet for yarmouth for next weekend.

 

Sunday 20th July

 

Broads Authority Website says 09:50am

Norfolk Broads Org says 10.53am

Silverline website (came up on google) says 10:45am

Mum says 10.50am (although sorry mum you got it wrong before )

Easytide website shows 10.27am

 

I can understand these being 15 mins out but an hours gap is confusing! (They are all apparently adjusted for BST - Although my bet is the BA one isn't) so if we aim for yarmouth for about 11.45 we should be ok.. Although I like hitting slack bang on because I'm tight with fuel money lol

 

Any ideas though? Can anyone suggest a trust worthy website/calculation?

BA website, Norfolk Broads Org and your Mum do concur fairly closely.

 

The Norfolk Broads Org website's time for Yarmouth is adjusted by one hour because it shows low tide for Yarmouth yacht station (up on the River Bure), which is different to Yarmouth pier heads, (Gorleston Bar), which is probably what your Mum and the BA are quoting for.

Broads Authority tables are for Gorleston; thats an hour before GH yacht station!

[JawsOrca]

Why on earth are the BA doing that!! Surely it should just be Great yarmouth bridges! (Does it really take an hour for the tide to squeeze through gorleston?)...

 

Thanks though that really has answered a bugging question. 

 

So Yarmouth for about 12pm and we should be spot on slack water?

[Hockham Admiral]

Depends which way you're going... if you're heading North the Bure stream changes after LW+1.30, not +1.00 as advertised. In fact with all the heavy rain we've had it might even be later than that.

 

In fact I'd make it for 12.30...

I always use the NSBA website and print off the tide times

for the whole of the Broads for the month I need.  I would reccomend it (and 

Membership).  It hasn't let me down yet! Regards Alan.

John.. I think 12:30 sounds even better.. I'd get even more of a lay in!

 

Thanks Alan. I'll take a look.
