Last Thursday was my worst day in the water this year
Got called out to fix a grate at the Port of Seattle intake pipe. Current was ripping at about 3 knots and visibility dropped to zero after 10 minutes. Spent almost 4 hours feeling around blind trying to get those bolts lined up. Has anyone else had a day where you just couldn't catch a break with the current?

The Port of Seattle's intake actually averages around 2 knots, not 3.

2 knots feels slow but the tidal flow past the piers can actually push that way higher on a flood current, sometimes doubling it for an hour or so.
