    I have not discussed the reason for the take off time. I imagine it would be a recommended time by people who would know the tidal flows. When you swim the straits, you have water flowing in at least 4 directions. Anytime you swim in the ocean you have to take advantage of tidal flows or you will run into very long swims.
