When is best to avoid huge waves? I.e. in a slack tide when flood comes in there is a huge disturbance of water coming in. Is it better to avoid the initial rush of water or avoid the 3/12th of flood range or wait the hour or two before the flood starts to change to Ebb and it’s like at 2/12 to 1/12. For context in the Caribbean I noticed that you can get huge waves if you don’t time it right however I haven’t figured out when it’s best to avoid huge waves for comfort of passengers. Nobody really talks about this even the training I took that covered tides doesn’t really talk about waves and water disturbance. Obviously flood against wind is not good, however I am trying just to figure it out when it’s best to plan the journey taking tides and waves into account? If I have new passengers on board they would appreciate this vs. traumatizing then with an uncomfortable experience. Thank you 🙏

If you are anchoring, it’s important to understand the tidal swing so you have enough scope out at high tide. Here in the Pacific Northwest of the US, it’s not uncommon to have a 13 foot swing (4 meters) . If you anchor at low tide at 5:1 scope you won’t have enough scope at high tide. This is a common error people make and then wonder why they drag…..
