Please note: In many cases, the station position in our database is accurate
to only one minute. Thus, the tide gauge may not appear to be on the coast.
Funchal II is a new station. Due to harbour construction the previous tide gauge was giving bad data results. The new gauge is levelled into a new TGBM and so cannot be added to the previous dataset.
