I purchased this summer the Platinum + Chart and I am having a hard time understanding some of the legend of the chart. For example: they give the predicted current flow direction and speed. However, the "Arrows" indicating direction are sometimes in "Red" and sometimes in "Blue". I have tried to correlate the color of the arrow with "flood" or "ebb" current without success. Does anyone know the meaning of "Red" or "Blue" color of the "current arrows"?

Thanks
 
I thought I was the only one who couldn't figure it out...
I find some of the symbols confusing too.

TunaJoe: Found out what the meaning of the color on the "current arrows". Red means the speed of the current is increasing and Blue means the speed of the current is decreasing. The number inside the arrow is the predicted current speed at the time. And of course the direction of the arrow is the predicted direction of the current.
