Animated Tide and Current Indicators

Tide and current information is for information purposes only. It is your responsibility to heed all posted
water-related guidance, to remain aware of your surroundings, and to use safe judgment in, on, and around the
water at all times. Failure to heed this warning could result in property damage, serious personal injury, or death.
NOTE: This feature is available with premium charts, in some areas.
You can view indicators for animated tide station and current direction on the Navigation chart or the Fishing
chart. You must also enable animated icons in the chart settings
page 31).
An indicator for a tide station appears on the chart as a vertical bar graph with an arrow. A red arrow pointing
downward indicates a falling tide, and a blue arrow pointing upward indicates a rising tide. When you move the
cursor over the tide station indicator, the height of the tide at the station appears above the station indicator.
Current direction indicators appear as arrows on the chart. The direction of each arrow indicates the direction
of the current at a specific location on the chart. The color of the current arrow indicates the range of speed for
the current at that location. When you move the cursor over the current direction indicator, the specific current
speed at the location appears above the direction indicator.
