Back to the last question, Charlie, I think it is the lighthouse on Digby Neck...

No Raggi - wrong map - that's New Zealand...

As for your latest...It looks a bit like Sydney Harbour, near the Bridge, approaching Circular Quay.

Meanwhile...While we wait for you and Charlie can I offer: The photo taken from a point which might interest Guillermo. Might even ring a bell...

You're getting closer, but the wrong country.

So it's Erope, it sure look like a small European town?
If you didn't mention Guillermo I would guess Germany or Denmark.

Yes. This is not a trick question where the lighthouse is on a border.
Just a well known lighthouse in North America.

Is this a view from the river near Seville and the Giralda?

Or Valencia?

Another clue: the lighthouse guards the entrance to a bay with several towns known for traditional boat building and great-tasting shellfish that move.

Europe, Raggi, but not Spain Charlie. Though there is a very strong Spanish connection even today.

Dead on, Raggi!!

Near Rockland, Rockport, and Camden, Maine. About 20 years ago a gazillionaire who was bored with racing maxi's had 3 100' + yachts built in Camden. One each schooner, ketch, and sloop. Said he was going to race them against each other all over the globe. I can't remember all the names, but I think each began with "White ...."
