I am helping my brother in law move his 35ft sailboat from Perth Amboy to Larchmont on September 4th. His diesel will move his boat at 6 knots. I think it is important that, for the rough current areas..... ie Hells Gate, that we hit the tide right. Can I ask some advice?
1) Is Hells Gate the toughest current, ie our weak link?
2) Saltwatertides.com shows high tide at Hells Gate at 3:14. Am I reading the chart correctly?
3) Do we want to time the passage as to hit Hells Gate between 2:40 and 3:40pm?
Any other advice?
Thanks!
