[sabresailor]

Can anyone recommend a publication for tidal streams in the solent - is ther anything more detailed than the Admiralty one?

+ when does the stream change from Yarmouth / Needles - to out going (how many hours after high water Portsmouth) - many thanks

(i) Reeves - Foulkes : "Manual of Tides" - Central Channel & the Solent ( or Sloent if you prefer !!!)

(ii) " Solent Tides " by Peter Bruce

both very good and not expensive, available @ the usual swindleries.

good luck

Ebb starts at Hurst one hour before HW Dover and today there is 10 minutes between Dover 0910 and Portsmouth 0920

I can't remember the name of it but I have an atlas onboard that was compiled using the results of a Southern Water survey. It is ring bound and in landscape format with tides every half hour.

Ref :- Solent Tides, Peter Bruce

"the tide off the Needles is slack one hour and thirty minutes before High Water Portsmouth at Springs and slack forty five minutes before High Water Portsmouth at Neaps."

So it depends on when you are going ........
