Great shot.

This would make a wicked cool 1000 piece puzzle.

That schooner in the distance looks familiar. Did you get the name?
Maybe the Virginia?

Hi guys,
My guess is the Bluenose II, based on Virginia flying large pennants on both
masts that day while Bluenose had only one smaller pennant on one mast. The
two boats are very similar, aren't they.

Another great picture Paul, thanks!

I was thinking about bluenose but I had just been looking at the
Virginia. Your estimate is I think right on.
