General Navigation USCG Question #1435 (Set 45)

Where will you find information about the duration of slack water?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option B — Tidal Current Tables

Tidal Current Tables provide detailed data on the velocity and duration of slack water for specific reference stations. While Tide Tables predict vertical water level changes, the Tidal Current Tables are the authoritative source for horizontal water movement, essential for safe navigation in restricted channels and harbor entrances.
