1) You know when high tide is and know the direction and speed of current for False Passage. Always best to navigate this pass during a rising flood tide. (Caution: Small vessels may not be able to navigate with motor propulsion in this strong tidal current near False Pass. Reports of 5 knots at max ebb.)

2) You have checked the local Notice to Mariners and confirmed the maintenance and position of navigation buoys. Check on VHF radio for local knowledge with False Pass residents/fuel dock etc for any known dangers.

3) Visibility is likely to be good - do not attempt navigation through False Pass in the fog. This region is flat and radar targets may be extremely hard to acquire clean with heavy sea clutter, especially in a seaway. Do not attempt transit in a seaway!
