Race Point Lighthouse, Massachusetts, Mechanical Animated Tide Clock
Everything Nautical is proud to present the Race Point Lighthouse (MA) 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 edge of the dunes, and slowly lower to reveal the sandy beach below before beginning to rise again.
Located in Provincetown, Massachusetts, this Cape Cod lighthouse was first erected in 1816. 70 years later, in a great disrepair, it was fully replaced with the current brick-lined cast iron tower that we recognize today. Race Point was electrified in 1957 and then automated in 1972. In 2003 the light was converted to solar power and several years later a backup generator running on a wind turbine was added. Today the keepers dwelling and nearby structures are cared for and rented by the American Lighthouse Foundation while the light is maintained by Coast Guard.
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!
