JJ - I beg to differ......the current in the canal changes four times a day.

This morning for example, high tide in Buzzards Bay was about 7 AM. High tide in Cape Cod Bay was about 10 AM. There was an east current until about 9, and then it switched to a west current, and the water level in the canal itself was rising at about 8 AM.......which it would continue to do until about noon or 1 PM, and then start dropping.....

At about 3 pm, the current will switch to east, the water level in the canal will drop until about 7 or 8, and then begin to rise again before the next current switch to west at about 9:30 tonight.....

I was there, I saw it.............

You gotta remember that the tide height difference in Buzzards Bay is only 4-6 feet, where as in Cape Cod Bay, it is 7-12 feet.......

Which screws the canal "tides" up royally.....
