Re: [Paddlewise] Tide Tables

I have used this program for a year and a half.  I have checked the
program against the published tide tables for my area which includes
several separate stations which have different tide ranges and times.
The program has always checked out on all of the stations I have
compared it to.  I would suggest downloading it, because it is a good
program, and checking it against the published tide tables for your
area.  Make sure when configuring it that you select the correct station
(location) for the tide tables you are using.
