you could try http://www.wxtide32.com

not an online resource, but you can download the program for free, and
it will do what you want for anywhere, let alone Cornwall.

Hope this helps

The latest versions of WXTide do not contain UK data (apart from a few
limited ports). They were forced to remove it at the request of the UK
Hydrographic Office.

Hi

latest on the web site says they've added an additional 44 ports in
England, Ireland & Scotland, total 112, but I guess you've checked
this and it's not suitable for your needs.

I saw http://easytide.ukho.gov.uk/EasyTide...ide/index.aspx
in one of the fishing magazines. Seems good if you don't mind paying
for the service.

I did have an old version with UK data, it went along with my old PC
when it died :-)

The WXtide site does have a list of other online resources the
original poster might want to try under the "toys and tools" heading.

Good fishing

Steve


I managed to find a copy of the last version to include full UK data
somewhere on the Web some time ago, & presumably if you troll around, it's
still there.

I normally just use the
http://easytide.ukho.gov.uk/EasyTide...ide/index.aspx
site, since the predictions are more accurate anyway. You have to register
to use the site, but it's free. There is a "pay part" for extra
information, for those who want it.

Regards,

Ian Sutherland
