Use the Google box on this search page (http://tighar.org/news/help/82-how-do-i-search-tigharorg).

Put in "tide" and "niku".

Depends on what part of the reef and what you mean by "the edge."  What state of the tide?  High tide? Low tide? Somewhere in between?  What time of the month?  What time of year?

I have a hunch that the questions you're trying to answer are a whole lot more complicated than you realize.

I'm wondering if the bevington object if there when Lambrecht flew over would have been in how deep of water.

Auto-correct strikes again.  You mean the Bevington Object.   
When Lambrecht flew over the tide was high with significant surf. The Bevington Object was well hidden from view .

Fixed that. Thanks. I was thinking it was from what I read. But sometimes you can see into the nonwhite cap ocean a little ways. When above. Even some goggle earth stuff I've seen before.
But he may not have looked into the ocean. Or white caps May have obscured the view.
