Dear Mushers!!!
Sorry, I have been in Omaha! Regarding your questions, unfortunately northbound you will transit Seymour Narrows in darkness - probably about 1 am. Not a lot to see - but if you are up you feel the ship manuvuer through the "z" of turns.
The "safe" is slack water - the perios between high and low tides - current is less swift. Slack water is about 1.5 - 2 hours; but you are also sharing that precious transit time with a lot of other ships!
Wish I were there with you!
Bon voyage!!!!!!!
