Well if you were going some where the tide could affect your speed. The tide could affect the time it would take you to get there. The tide could affect the amount of fuel you would burn. The tide could affect the water depth. The tide could affect the clearance you have if you are going to go under a bridge. So check your tide chart. If you go with the tide you save time and fuel.
