I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Classic Tide Timer Tide Clock

Classic Tide Timer Tide Clock

Description

Tide Timers are a perfect gift for anyone with a coastal home or boat, fishermen, swimmers, surfers and beachcombers. They offer a simple, reliable way to keep track of the tides! The tides operate on moon time, where each tidal day has 24 hours and 50 1/2 minutes, so high and low tides do not occur at the same hour each day. The Tide Timer’s red ball hand conveniently shows –at a glance - how many hours until the next High or Low tide in your area. Tide Timers are much easier to read than printed tide tables, and come in a variety of styles to compliment any decor. Tide Timers are recommended for use on both Coasts of the United States and Canada. On the Atlantic they never need adjustment. On the Pacific, including Hawaii, they will work but they must be reset each week using our proprietary setting tables. Tide Clocks do work in the Gulf of Mexico. Schelling Corp has been making and guaranteeing their Tide Timers since 1971.

Sure, it's just a clock. Set it to the time of high tide where ever you want and it will continue to show you the hours to the next tide. It does not know you are not at the water. I love the clock.
