Online alarm clock for 12:00 am
If you’re halfway through preparing gear for a Bay of Islands tide, set the 12:00 am alarm to break your concentration and remind you to check the nets before low water. Midnight can arrive unnoticed while you are sorting ropes, floats, and the rest of the kit, so the alert marks the moment to stop what you are doing and make that final check.
While you work, confirm where the alarm sound will play. A phone or laptop may quietly route it to connected headphones, leaving the room silent even though the alarm has triggered. Disconnect headphones you are not wearing, or keep them close enough to hear. This browser alarm cannot bring you back to the nets if you close the page or allow the phone or laptop to sleep; keep the page open, the device awake, and the volume audible until 12:00 am.
A late-night nets check can affect everyone sleeping nearby, especially when gear is being moved through the house. Place the device close to you and choose a moderate volume rather than relying on a loud alarm from another room. Prepare shoes, a torch, and outdoor layers beforehand so you can silence the alert promptly and leave without switching on bright shared lights or searching through cupboards at midnight.
