Good point.
If we had to take tidal changes into account, life would be really difficult in coastal waters - in some places the tidal currents can be faster than a U-boat can run underwater.
As I'm not a 100%er, I'll stick with the status quo.

I live near the Bristol channel, which has the world's second largest tidal range. The chances of becoming a stick-in-the-mud are just too much.
THINKS "Maybe I could get my VIIB to surf in on the tidal bore?"
