OK, if you cant use a regular calendar and cant bear to shell out $7.95 for Eldridges (which expires after one year) . . . I found a shareware program on AOL a few years ago called "TIDE.EXE" which calculates the time, heights, and velocities of tides and currents at various places (including something called "Mare inebrium" which is not on my maps) on any day well into the future. Oh, yeah, it has moon phases marked on the calendar, too. I dont know if the shareware version is still on AOL. I sprung for the "full" version which includes a bunch more locations, and only cost $20 or so. It is a very basic DOS program that will run on the slowest and oldest computers around.

Happy moonlight paddling, and dont forget your strobe light. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ ***************************************************************************Received on Mon Jun 01 1998 - 15:13:09 PDT
