JawsOrca Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 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.

Hockham Admiral Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Broads Authority tables are for Gorleston; thats an hour before GH yacht station! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawsOrca Posted July 15, 2014 Author Share Posted July 15, 2014 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 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 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... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 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. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawsOrca Posted July 15, 2014 Author Share Posted July 15, 2014 John.. I think 12:30 sounds even better.. I'd get even more of a lay in! Thanks Alan. I'll take a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
