The importance of understanding longitude was well known, but the tidal flow of the seas and their unpredictability was a major navigational hazard resulting in heavy losses of vessels, especially on the approach to harbours and ports. Halley's voyage aboard the "Paramore" in 1701, enabled him to produce a map of the English Channel which for the first time, enabled a prediction of the tides. Its genius was that it made something that was extremely complicated, understandable by 18th-century mariners. Mount & Page published a derivative map in 1702 and this example was published in the 'English Pilot' of 1749.
