Retirement
Harbour Lights is announcing the immediate retirement of HL 646 Minot’s Ledge Massachusetts
Please note there is no available inventory from Harbour Lights, after our physical inventory, completed 15 January 2007, we learned that this Replica was “sold out.”
Harbour Lights went to reorder this replica and learned it was necessary to make a factory change. This factory change would have made the price point increase significantly and the decision was made to announce this immediate retirement.
HL646 was introduced in September, 2002, as an open edition and is referred to as the "I Love You" light because of it's flash pattern of 1-4-3.
Some replicas may still be available at retail stores.
