 It is almost a 'fraternal twin' of the Fourteen Foot Shoal Light which was built in 1930.In that sense, by using the same crews, equipment and personnel, the builders followed in the tradition of the builders of Spectacle Reef Light, White Shoal Light, and Waugoshance Light, thereby achieving real savings and efficiency.This light (and its predecessor) have gone through many different lenses in its 160-year history.
