_MG_0686 3 Ships & A Lighthouse

Penobscot Bay, Maine view map

The ship in the foreground is the schooner (or windjamer) the "Heritage" out of Rockland, Maine.
More great information about the ship can be found at http://www.schoonerheritage.com/
The lighthouse is Owl's Head Light: Built in 1825, Fourth order Frensel Lens built in 1856 sill in use.
Light was automated in 1989. Tower is 30 Feet High. Big thanks to Captain Phil Montgomery of Camden,
Maine for navigating his boat (i.e. the one we were in) as I requested him to line things up so I could get this shot!

Gorgeous light and colour Fred - wonderfully attractive photograph.
The schooner somewhat resembles the one on the Canadian dime - going the same direction anyhow.
