Pardon my ignorance. How would I determine when slack tide is between Orcas and Sucia? 
 
I've been tossed pretty thoroughly making that crossing. It was fun the first 5 or 6 times, but I'm getting old...
 
Dullard that I am, I never really tracked where I was in the cycle. The speed of flow was never an issue; just the mixing. Expanses of violent chop. There's a dull roar to it at it's best.
 
 
 
Thanks,
 
Ed
