Why this recommendation?

The 79 degree true forecast converts to approximately 80 degrees magnetic and uses the nearest 15 degree matrix column: 075 degrees.

Long selected because the forecast mean is 7.8 kt and gust 12.2 kt, within the Force 3-4 wind band used by the card when conditions are suitable.

Wind-based selection; shorten for poor visibility, rough sea or other race-management concerns.

OOD interpretation

The arrows show the expected local direction of flow around the racing area for this state of tide.

Timing is approximate: the source annotations show that local turns can occur at different times on springs and neaps. Wind, pressure and local eddies can also alter the flow experienced on the course.

Confirm the stream at the committee boat and relevant marks before setting the course. Do not infer slack water solely from high or low water.
