Beavertail Lighthouse (Rhode Island) Mechanical Animated Tide Clock
Everything Nautical is proud to present the Beavertail Lighthouse (RI) 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 high on the coastline, and slowly lower to reveal the rocky shore below before beginning to rise again.
The premier lighthouse in Rhode Island, the Beavertail marks the entrance to Narragansett Bay. The current tower was built in 1856 on the southernmost point of Conanicut Island in Jamestown. Various beacons have stood on this spot since as early as 1705, with the first official stone lighthouse being built in 1753. In 1779, during the Revolutionary War, the Newport Light was burned down by British Soldiers during their retreat. Well over half of a century later the current granite beacon was built. In 1989 the light was automated and restored before being opened to the public.
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.
This functional piece will help turn any space into an ocean-side getaway. It also makes a great gift for the Captain in your life, no matter the occasion!
