Low water at Rockland Staithes this morning

Anyone heading for Rockland Staithe today, beware the water is extremely low just now, our depth sounder showing "out" or unreliable reading 
We were stirring up the bottom a lot 
Anyone stern mooring should be aware of the great likelihood of grounding your sterngear unless mooring at the pub side

I assume it will be the same later today

Thanks for the post :) .. it probably means I will have problems getting out of the marina too!..

 

That certainly explain how Mustang squeezed under thorpe bridges!

 

If you see here:

You will see they are spring tides.. i.e there's a decent gap between the highs and lows (and the low at .5m is quite low).. although it seems to be getting better.. I guess this storm is also keeping the tide out a bit making the low tide even lower.. so hopefully be better soon :)

 

Enjoy your trip..! cheers
