tides

I have the original 997C, with the latest Navionics Platinum chip.
Is there a way to display the tides where I'm fishing on it?

Hi Mark,

If I'm understanding what you are asking, no there is not. Tide stations, as you know are specific for that general location. In general, depending on where you are, currents, or inlets etc, every 5-6 hours, the tide will go from hi to lo or low to high. With a little local knowledge and mental math you should be able to get pretty closed. Once again, in general, there is a fairly consistent time distance between tide stations. So if you look at one down river vs one just before it, that to will give you an idea of where the tide is or will be at your location. It's not an exact science, but it will get you close.

Thanks Tshombe.
I got the tides near me on my phone app., so I should be okay for now, until Cooch "learns me" the real deal. Hahaha
