And one more clue:

A shipwreck is never a delight, or is it?

Agreed. The Gutenberg.org files from post 2774 were very interesting, however, with very nice illustrations as well.

Raggi,
I think it is not the HMS Delight (destroyer), but another Delight.
I've found an spot with a clear relation between the words wreck-delight-horses-sable in a cod fishing area (btw: already visited in this thread quite a while ago ), but not having the tower in the image....

Cheers

I take it back. I believe it is Bondicar Rocks where the packet ship New Delight met her fate.

No problem, Stu.

bntii,
I recognize this is a difficult one. I strongly suspect it's in Canada. Any other more definite clue to localize that marking tower?
And another question: have you been there?

Cheers.

1583? Then I'm right in my post about wreck-delight-horses-sable. Read my previous post #882.
But the tower in your image is not from there. It's not nowadays there, I mean.
Anyone knows about what place I'm talking about?

Cheers
