Tidal Streams off Chi

[NDG]

Can anyone tell me v roughly what time the streams begin to run east outside Chi harbour, in relation to HW Portsmouth?

The atlas is on the boat and although I should be working very hard in the office this afternoon, its sunny outside and I am far too busy mentally planning my passage tomorrow.

Cheers

Nick

Sorry to be cheeky (well not really) /forums/images/graemlins/ooo.gif /forums/images/graemlins/ooo.gif if you've got your Almanac out could you tell me how far it is from La Crouesty to Santander????

Approx 2 hrs b4 HW Pompey it's slack off Chi. Then it gets a bit twirly-whirly, depending on exactly where you are. Channel tide gets going east at about 5.5 hrs after HW Pompey.

Cheers for that.

About 250nm I believe.

Thanks Piddy. Sounds right.

So now you know what's the plan?

Nothing terribly exciting. Just thinking about maybe going to Brighton on Sat and returning on Sun. Might get a nice spinny run tomorrow... Doesnt look like much wind on Sunday though, so havent made mind up yet.

Might see the inshore forecast later today and decide then.
