York Haven Marina is a boat ramp in Poquoson city, Virginia, on Bennett Creek. From here SeaStatus scores 7 waters: Drum Island Flats, James River from Jamestown to the James River Bridge, Chesapeake Bay from New Point Comfort to Little Creek VA (Area 5 of 11), James River from JRB to HRBT, Including the Elizabeth River, Northwest Branch Back River, Poquoson River, and 1 more.
The main water here is Chesapeake Bay from New Point Comfort to Little Creek VA (Area 5 of 11). Nearshore water is scored mostly on wind and wave height, with wave steepness and the tidal current counting too. A current running against the wind is treated as worse than either one alone. Wind, and waves where it reports them, come from NDBC buoy 44072, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 8638051, Messick Point, Back River, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 1.1 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
