I found a pdf of the Tide Times chart without which you cannot complete the game. This was originally supplied only in hard copy. To access the pdf I found you will need to register for for the MbeeTech Repository. Link and info in the forum:

Then when you get access, look in the Documentation/Manuals/Education folder for dinosaur_discovery_teachers_manual.pdf

Finding this was harder than the game but worth it - I finally finished the game 35 years later!

Loved this game as a child!
Could never finish it though as I couldn’t get past the currents. Would actually love to play again :-)
