5:51a 9:04a -5.8
12:14p 3:24p +8.0
7:10p 10:09p -5.4


So from the above I thought I was going to a low tide slack at 7:10P because the F/E was a negative number.

So where did I go wrong?

Help Please....


NOTE:Well my chart stuff won't format properly.

The positive numbers are the max current during a flood tide and the negative is the max current on the ebb tide. At 12:14 it was slack after the ebb, so a low water slack. Then the flood started and the max flood current was 8 kts at 3:24. Then high water slack occurred at 7:10. Up until 7:10 the tide was flooding north.
