Owls Head Lighthouse, Maine, Mechanical Animated Tide Clock
Everything Nautical is proud to present the Owls Head 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 at the bottom edge of the cliff, and slowly lower to reveal the sheer drop below before beginning to rise again.
Originally built in 1825 on the eastern tip of a peninsula that reaches northeast into the Penobscot Bay, the Owls Head Light is an active navigational aid at the entrance of Rockland Harbor. It was built to 30-feet using brick over a granite foundation, and stands on top of cliff, allowing the light to shine 100 feet above mean sea level. Today, still active, it is one of the prime tourist attractions of Owls Head State Park. Renovations completed in 2010 restored the tower to it's 1852 appearance, including repainting, brickwork, ironworks, glasswork, and flooring. Today, still active, it is one of the prime tourist attractions of Owls Head State Park.
