Re: The Tide and the Ocean
Think about this one and consider gravity and a level or transit if you must.... Looking onshore from the ocean the jetty is exposed 6 or 8 feet, low tide...where is the mysterious hump that levels out in the deep? Nowhere... When your at anchor all day on one spot, why does the depth change?= gravity. When there is more gravity at your spot, there is more "tide"- high tide, because the water is pulled to the spot of the highest force of gravity... I never would want to talk with this captain...
