What happens if my start time falls exactly on a HW-X hour. for example HW at 0844 and my sailing time is at 0344. T(0344 to 0444) this happens to span both HW-4 and HW-5. Would I then select half an hour of each tidal hour?
The tide flow straddles over the hour from half an hour before to half an hour after, in your example of 0844 the time of the flow is 0814 to 0914 ie half an hour before and after. If your sailing time is 0344 to 0444 you would use HW-5 for 0344 to 0414 and HW -4 for 0414 to 0444. I hope this helps thanks for watching - Paul
