Historical tidal heights

[NPMR]

I can't seem to lay my hands on Falmouth tide times and more interestingly (to me), heights for April and November 2005.

I have chucked the freebies and the Reeds as we only have a tiny house ('cause we have a boat, of course).

Where would you look?

I haven't registered, so I'm not sure what you can get, but you might be able to get the hourly tidal heights (both predicted and actual). presumably a lot more than you wanted!

Here is plymouth for the months you said - Falmouth is based on Plymouth

Just noticed you said you have chucked almanacs.

CA says Falmouth is Plymouth -0035 and hts are

MHWS 5.4m MHWN 4.3m MLWN 2.1m MLWS 0.8m

 

[NPMR]

Brilliant, thanks.

Isn't the interworld webnet a wonderful thing?

Launch day is next Thursday and I was wondering what tidal heights I had been blessed with previously as it gets a bit thin for my fin keeler in the river if we launch too early/late! We need Springs either way.

I have had the depthometer showing 2" under the keel on a falling tide and I don't like the adrenalin rush it gives me!

Thanks for your help. Now I know what we had, it might be more reassuring! Not?

 

[shmoo]

Two FEET! That's over half a metre! Here on East Coast that's nearly blue water sailing.

Too right, any more than that, and I get vertigo.

 

[NPMR]

I know that you 'East Coasters' are used to being in shallow water, I once ran aground about 6 miles off the East Coast in the Thames estuary from the River Crouch somewhere, but I typed, and meant 2 INCHES!

In Falmouth Harbour you can get over one hundred feet in the main channel so the 2 INCH contrast really gets you going!

We also seem to have sharp spikey bits that stick up (mostly visible!) that can catch you unawares.

I guess our hazards are all equal; it's just what you get used to?

 

[shmoo]

Ok, two inches is tight and to be honest I have not seen any blue water on the East Coast.

Hope it all goes well. We might see you in the summer: we really only consider the holiday begins as we pass 5 degees west.

 

[VicS]

THIS SITE will give you the tides for many Uk ports, incl Falmouth, right through from 1970 to 2037. They are not records of the actual height recorded though just the normal predictions

If you have specific heights and times then Falmouth Harbour might have data on actual heights. It's worth a try!
