Default tide clock

From sailing to sand castles, everyone needs to know what the tide is
doing!
Synchronised to the moons daily cycle, the ashortwalk tide clock gives
you an innovative and convenient guide to tides. Simply set the hand
to the high tide position at exactly high tide for your chosen
location, then throw away your tide table!
How does it work? Tides are caused mainly by the moons gravitational
pull on the ocean. The time it takes for the moon to reappear in the
same place in the sky each day is 24 hours and 50 mins. Most areas in
the world have two high tides and two low tides a day, so the tide
clock has been designed to rotate every 12 hours and 25 mins.
