The tidal period (length of time between successive high or low tides) is about 12 hours and 25.2 minutes, exactly half a tidal lunar day. Thus the period between the high tide and the low tide is 6 hours and 12.6 minutes. This means that if it was high tide at noon, the low tide will be at 12.6 minutes past 6 in the evening of the same day.

There are approximately 4 tides per day...two high, and two low. Actually, there are 4 tides every 24 hours and 50 minutes, so high tides occur every 12 hours and 25 minutes. Low tides occur in the alternate 12 hours and 25 minutes. If you have a high tide at noon, you could expect the next low tide 6 hours and 12.5 minutes later.
Because tides can change the depth of the water by an important amount. Underwater obstacles you can pass at high tide might catch you at low tide. Or even leave you stranded. Tides can also cause strong currents. Usually not a problem for motor boats, but they can bring sail boats/and really slow motorboats to a standstill.

In most states, and coastal waters of the US, children must be wearing their life vests on powered vessels, (and some sailboats) at all times unless the gunwhales of the vessel are sufficiently high enough to prevent their falling overboard. This precludes most vessels under 28 feet long. {oared vessels differ in these regulations from state to state, but generally are not covered under boating regulations for sail or powered vessels}.
