Rockland Breakwater Lighthouse (Maine) Mechanical Animated Tide Clock
Everything Nautical is proud to present the Rockland Breakwater 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 edge of the rocky property, and slowly lower to reveal the stone, manmade breakwater below before beginning to rise again.
The 4000+ foot Rockland Breakwater was built after years of storms and rough waters prevented the harbor from achieving its full potential. First completed in 1899, the original breakwater proved to be too short and was built up another 4 feet in 1901. The new cap included the base for the a lighthouse to be built at the end. The first lighthouse and keepers quarters were completed in 1902. It was fully automated in 1964. As of 1999 the structure was run by volunteers from Rockland, Maine, while the Coast Guard maintains the light.
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.
