Have a look at this picture which I stitched together out of two identical shots of Harbourville N.S. 6 hours apart. Clearly shows the massive effect of the tides here!

Morden2004 09-13-2005, 06:37 PM That's a cool blend of shots! Landlubber question: How many hours does it take between high & low tides Paul ? Thanks. The lunar effect cycle is 6 hours and 25 minutes. So to drain the pool and to fill'er up again takes 12 hours 50 minutes :rofl: However, due to friction and the "lunge" effect of all that water plunging up the bay the times are slightly less - so they say.
