Wildfowler12 Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 Nice one, that's actually spot on! It takes a while to find the right area, I found Gladstone Dock under Sefton (was looking for Liverpool) but the data is accurate.

JamesWhat Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 Try this one. It's a sailing app, but it also uses gps so you can tell where you are as well as gauging the tides. http://www.navionics.com/en/mobile-pc-app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wildfowler325 Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 (edited) As my job is being a fisherman i look at tides time and sea condition and i use the magicseaweed app for iphone. Its real accurate! https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/msw-surf-forecast/id322103952?mt=8 Edited October 9, 2013 by Wildfowler325 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from some times being 1minute either side, I've not noticed a single incorrect entry yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from some times being 1minute either side, I've not noticed a single incorrect entry yet. Up where I am on my location I'm nearest Annan waterfront it says 6.6 don't know why it says that. 9m tides is a 9m tide wherever you are surely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildfowler12 Posted October 10, 2013 Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 9m tides is a 9m tide wherever you are surely No, the height measured differs at each location. For example, a 9m peak at Gladstone Dock may only reach 6m height at Annan, and 3m height at fiddlers ferry. If you search for the exact spot (Gladstone) rather than using the nearest location you'll find they're spot on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
