- With ten metres of water 1200 m from the shore, the band where you meet the local orders is all of it right here. Between the shore and five metres of water there are 720 m: that is the stretch you want to cover in good light. The last stretch, the 1200 m out to ten metres of water, is the one you will swim tired: put it in the day's arithmetic. Arrive with time to look the place over before getting in.
- παλίρροια
- If anything changes the level at Trieste, it is pressure and wind, not the moon. In the bora the level drops and in the sirocco it rises: the wind surge adds itself to the astronomical range. With the shore 100 m from the mark, the alongshore current counts for more than any table. The way back, 720 m to the five-metre band, is decided beforehand and not on the way.
- καταφύγιο
- Gusts from the northeast ruffle the surface but raise no swell: it is the fetch towards the southwest that counts. In Libeccio the detached rocks break the swell but hand it back confused, and that crossed sea tires you more than a clean wave. With wind from the southwest building, the window shuts fast: plan the way back with margin. Dead swell from the southwest arrives under a clear sky and no wind at all.
