Messages: 357. Slack tide is when the current goes slack between tide changes and slack usually last 30min to an hour after peak high tide or peak low tide(hence high slack or low slack). Feb 27, 2008.
This is because the Moon takes slightly longer than 24 hours to line up again exactly with the same point on the Earth - about 50 minutes more. Therefore, the timing of high tides is staggered throughout the course of a month, with each tide commencing approximately 24 hours and 50 minutes later than the one before it.
