Curtis Island Lighthouse, Maine, Mechanical Animated Tide Clock
Everything Nautical is proud to present the Curtis Island Lighthouse (ME) 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 rocky coastline, and slowly lower to reveal the sheer drop of the island below before beginning to rise again.
Located on a 5-acre island off Dillingham Point, at the southern end of Camden Harbor, Camden, Maine, the Curtis Island Lighthouse was first established in 1835. The original structure was replaced in 1896, when the present lighthouse was built. The island where the lighthouse stands was known as Negro Island until 1934, when it was renamed in honor of Cyrus H.K. Curtis, a philanthropist and frequent visitor to the lighthouse. The light was turned over to the local citizens by the coast guard in 1970 and was automated in 1972. Today, while the lighthouse is not open to the public, you can visit Curtis Island, now a public park, via boat.
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.
