The solid line is what this gauge has measured. The dashed line is the level normal
for the date (median for 2015–2026). The dotted line is the comparison line above.

We publish no comparison line for this gauge. This reading is context for the reach
rather than a figure to measure a ship against, and inventing a line to compare it
with would be worse than saying so.

Waterlogged’s Waterlogged's estimated level for this stretch, set from the measured record rather than from any ship's draught. In 35 years of readings, every day of the cruise season below it fell inside a disruption somebody documented at the time. It is a gauge level, not a depth under a ship, and no authority or cruise line publishes it.: 60 cm.
Today's reading is 50 cm below it.

It means less than a cruise line would like you to think and more than a search result will
tell you. A reading below the line we draw does not mean your cruise is cancelled, and a
reading above it is not a promise that it will sail. Only the operator decides that.
Waterlogged does not provide a future river depth forecast. The trend and the graph describe
measured moves that have already happened.
