Tide Predictions

[hesper]

I was just trying to look up tides for next summer for sailing program planning and I see that MaineHarbors.com http://maineharbors.com/ma/tidemass.htm
will no longer be publishing tide charts for Mass, RI etc. as of Jan 1,2006.
Too bad as I've found this to be the best site for these charts.
Anyone have a suggestion for an alternative site?
thanks

Anyone have a suggestion for an alternative site?

I use the WXTide32 on Windows (http://wxtide32.com/)and the Tide Tool Palm (http://www.toolworks.com/bilofsky/tidetool/) gadgets. Both use the XTide database and seem to be close enough for my purposes.

Eric,
thanks but I could not download. Besides, too much like math for me. Isn't there a simple chart out there?
i suppose the new pocket sized thingy's will be at the boat yard soon. Gives me an excuse to take a ride over there i guess.

Nothing about computers is simple. It's a real struggle to get and keep a boat that way too, but it is at least still a possibility.

If you want a simple web site that produces a page per month that you can print out, take a look at http://www.tidesonline.com/. I don't know anything about them and I've not check the accuracy of their data, but, it appears to work.

The pocket sized thingy from the boat yard is probably easier to handle on board anyway...

Hah!

I can figure out this computer stuff. I'm not dumb, not like people say...
