Information on Tides.

[peter k]

I'm beginning to start getting the shit for Lochaline sorted out now. Once upon a time I had a great link to tidetables but seem to have lost it. Anyone know where I can find a good one from?
Thanks people

Hi,
  Most of the tide sites have been shut down by the UKHO(something to do with copyright) and the rest don't let me look far enough ahead. I'm just off the 'phone to my Uncle and he's sending me over the original downloaded tables he's got. This gives me worldwide tables in all ports for the next 150yrs(highs, lows, night, day, spring and neap). That should just about do me. This is the one I had from the start and it's bloody magic.

Hi Bren

Thanks for the Admiralty tides they will come in useful only trouble with these gov web sites is the fonts are so small that I can not read half of the print on my 14” monitor.
In fact I filled in their comments section and told them so.
Only way I can make any sense to it is to copy and paste to a word doc.
Any one else know of another way to read them?
Other than buying a bloddy great monitor that is.

Hi Bob,

You can enlarge most of the text by selecting 'View','Text Size' and 'Largest' off your IE toolbar, though you'll want to change it back again to carry on browsing.  
Unfortunately this doesn't work on the fiddly graph, so the only option is to cut and paste, though you can just cut & paste the graph rather than the whole document (in case anyone's doing that....er, like I was)
OR try Belfield Tide Plotter 2003, which is pretty spiffy.
www.tideplotter.co.uk .  It costs £9.95 :pity_party: but I reckon it's money well spent cos it's more portable.

Try holding down the control key on your keyboard while rolling the wheel on you mouse, this should dynamically enlarge and reduce the text.

Waddya mean you don't have a wheel on your mouse??

Cheers Rob works a treat.
Feel a right plonker now after e-mailing them and complaining.
You get that Terry?
