#2 Similar story as regards tides, Shipman. The Kimberley coast (of Western Australia) has an enormous tidal range, 30 or 40 feet is typical. You can be motoring along and the bottom just rises up, the water retreats for miles and all you can do is wait for high tide. And shore up as best you can if you are on a coral bottom. Very tricky waters.
