wheels 543 Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 The country is about to experience King tides from tomorrow till next Wednesday. About .4 of a metre above normal high tides. So watch tidal current area's as they will be very fast flowing, ensure your beached Tenders are well above the extra high mark and remember, with the extra highs, we get extra low lows.

Guest Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 And a lot of extra current for the Auckland Jollyboat Champs on the Manukau this weekend. Link to post Share on other sites
wheels 543 Posted November 5, 2010 Author Share Posted November 5, 2010 Apparently you guys have a motorway that the authorities are saying could go underwater at highwater. Dang you guys must be low up there. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 And anyone on the panmure piles, watch that your mooring rings don't slip over the top of the piles. Harbourmaster still hasn't got back to me on that one. $600 of repairs and they clearly don't want to take responsibility for the poor design of their pile moorings. Link to post Share on other sites

Variant 2 Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 And a lot of extra current for the Auckland Jollyboat Champs on the Manukau this weekend. I think the 25 knots of wind on Saturday will be more of an issue. Link to post Share on other sites

Short-taking through the north channel into Kawau in a cold SW on Saturday evening...what a mission. Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Rocket Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Big tides made starting pretty entertaining - flat running in 15 knots on the start line to keep below the line - in lasers. Ha Link to post Share on other sites
