Beaconlog

Twelve famous lighthouses from Eddystone and Cordouan to Cape Hatteras and the Pharos of Alexandria. Each entry has year built, height, characteristic flashing pattern in chart shorthand, and a paragraph of history (why the Smalls Lighthouse changed staffing rules; why La Jument is famous for one storm photograph). Construction types: onshore, offshore, caisson, skeleton, lightship. Add your own sightings — date, place, notes — and the visited list grows as you check off the catalogue.
