     Greetings,
     
     Regarding Currents at the Golden Gate Bridge:
     
     The Ebb flows have been stronger due to snowmelt from the River
     systems. SF Pilots are adding 0.8 to 2.0 knots to the speeds listed
     in the EBB current tables at the Golden Gate.
     
     Included in the Golden Gate Tide Tables are several maps of current
     flow and velocity for various stations located at the Golden Gate for
     various times through the cycle of the tide. Note the reverse eddies
     that form off Baker Beach and on the North Side of the Golden Gate as
     the Ebb strengthens approaching Max. Ebb.
     
     I tried to find these images on the WWW but only found data at:
     
     http://unr.edu/homepage/edc/tides.html
     
     West Marine stores give away free Tide Books that have the images
     included.
     
     5-1-98 0600 hrs Half Moon Bay:
     Pillar Point Harbor was blowing steady at 22, g30 knots, mainly from
     the South. Steady light drizzle. Should be good conditions today.
     
     happy shredding,
     
     JWC in Half Moon Bay
