Anyone know when the tide turns to run west in Vineyard Sound tomorrow August 15? I have to sail an (engineless) Herreshoff 12 1/2 from Chappaquiddick to Vineyard Haven.

Hi Nicolas,
If you have a smart phone, you can use the app called Marine Weather Pro.
I have several other apps, but when coming up the coast, I ended up
going to that app always. You can get tides anywhere and it pulls down
the NOAA forcasts for you in any area. It displays a map and divides it
into sectors. You touch the sector you want and you can get info that way.

Theres a tidal station right in the middle of the sound on marthas vineyard.
It shows.
8/15 Sat 3:57am 0.16 Low
8/15 Sat 9:14am 2.42 high
8/15 Sat 3:50pm 0.13 Low
8/15 Sat 9:32pm 2.43 high

It would be nice if others can check this data independently so
its accuracy can be tested.
