Interesting facts about Great Britain

Great Britain is a region with a rich seafaring heritage. The English south coast in particular is home to countless quaint harbour towns with long, eventful histories. The strong winds and large tidal range of the English Channel present an exciting challenge for even the most experienced sailors.

Weather in Great Britain

The areas around the United Kingdom (especially England) are tidal waters. The skipper should have a sound knowledge of high and low tide times, expected water levels, currents and associated dangers. Always watch out for so-called "races". At certain times, wind, current and shoals create wave formations that can cause serious damage to a yacht.

Special notes

Depending on the cruising area, you may also have to deal with the sometimes very heavy commercial shipping. Many traffic separation areas (TSS) with large and fast ships require special attention from the skipper and the entire charter crew.
