🔍 Key Concepts

• Chart datum vs. tidal datum and how they are related • The definition of chart soundings and what water level they are based on • Where the reference level for predicted heights is usually described in official tide tables

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Tide predictions tell you how much water is above or below what level? Is it the deepest, the highest, or a commonly used reference? • Consider whether tide tables must match the vertical reference used on nautical charts so that depths plus tide heights make sense together. • Think about which choice sounds like a standardized vertical reference used consistently in many harbors, not something that changes from page to page.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in an actual tide table where it states: "Heights are referred to _______." • Check which option would allow a navigator to add tide height + charted depth safely for under-keel clearance. • Confirm that the datum used is not the absolute highest water level, but a level that is often close to the lowest predicted tides in the area.
