Keadby Lock times - reminder

[Midnight]

I've gone out of Keadby several times in the past but I am trying to remember the approximate times for penning out to go to Cromwell in relation to high tide at Hull. i.e If HT at Hull is 8.30am what time approximately are we likely to be let out. Please can someone remind me.

You usually leave Keadby for Torksey/Cromwell just after low water. So approximately 2 hours before HW Hull, don't forget it varies slightly with Neaps or Springs. You could just Google Keadby tide times.

Thanks Joe.

When you ring the lockie to book your passage they will advise you of suitable passage times.

Ring the lockie in advance and he will give you a suitable locking time based on your boat type and speed.

As someone has already said he will lock you out shortly after low water to make the most of the incoming tide.

Faster boats like ours are let out much later. We tend to come out just before high water and sit on top of the tide.

Thank you all for your suggestions. I am trying to decide when to do that trip so no point in ringing the lockie until the date is set. Knowing roughly the times in relation to the tide will help the decision making.

HW Keadby = HW Hull +1Hr (Springs)
HW Keadby = HW Hull +1.5 Hr (Neaps)
