⛴️ Thames River-Bus Pilot: Tidal Stream, Air Draft and Landmark Cruise

Pilot a generic river bus along a stylised tidal river past a clock tower, an observation wheel and three bridges. Learn why a boat crabs sideways in a current (crab angle and the velocity triangle), why hull speed limits wash (Froude number), whether you fit under an arch at high water (air draft) and how to moor against the stream. The tide is a model, not a forecast, and the simulation is not for navigation.
