And here I was crossing after high and always at night. I was doing it wrong all this time. Each time was a near death experience but I just thought that was the way of the sea. Now that I know how to cross correctly, no more having my family join me in the kitchen for a potential last ever hug before I departed for a low tide night time bar crossing.
It says to cross in the 3 hours before high tide. But some places have diurnal tides (one tide cycle a day), and some semi-diurnal (2 cycles a day). Which tide pattern is the 3-hour rule for?

Good video! Hopefully we'll reach 1,000 subscriptions soon
Yeah
Why not cross a bar during low tide?
Because waves are larger, closer together and crest easily at low tide
Thank you !! Didn't even know this
also chance the risk of hitting sand, getting the boat stuck then its all over from there
The sea scares the shit outta me .
Just buy a cootacraft and send it
