Dealing with tides! The difference in the amount of tide from one place to another is amazing. In Titusville the tide change is less than 2 inches. In Fort Pierce the tide change is about 2 feet. The tide change here in Brunswick yesterday was almost 10ft. The docks here are floating, meaning they go up and down with the tide, look at the difference between the 2 pictures. The top picture is low tide yesterday at 2pm
This is the high tide last night at 8pm.
Incredible isn't it!?? In Georgia the tides were 8-9 ft. and we were able to do a 'Georgia haul-out' by tying alongside the fixed pier and waiting for the tide to go out...rapidly cleaning and painting the bottom before it came back in!! We took pictures for posterity! :)))
