Barnegat Lighthouse (New Jersey) Mechanically Animated Tide Clock
Everything Nautical is proud to present the Barnegat Lighthouse (NJ) Mechanically Animated Tide Clock. This stunning clock tracks the tide in true nautical fashion. While the dial counts away the hours between tide cycles below, the top is mechanically animated to show the changing sea level in real time. At high tide the water will sit near the base of the lighthouse, and slowly lower to reveal the stone retaining wall below the water before beginning to rise again.
Located on the southern tip of Long Beach Island, New Jersey, the Barnegat Lighthouse plays an instrumental role in for vessels navigating to or from New York Harbor. Shoals in this area extend from the shoreline deep into the water. These ,in combination with the fast currents and shifting sandbars, have caused much damage. It was first built in 1835, the 40-foot tall tower stood 900 feet from the water, but within 10 years that number had been halved. A new lighthouse was built 100 feet south in 1859 and stood 163 feet tall, with an exterior conical tower covering an interior cylindrical tower.
A fun and whimsical addition to any room, this tide clock is hand-crafted right in New England. It works to track the tide anywhere that has two high and low tides per day and will run all year on a single AA battery. Choose from 3 different wooden frame colors (Navy, Black, and Gray), or upgrade to our Deluxe Mahogany Frame for added quality and class.
