Western Islands - Greenport

After a good nights rest and a hearty breakfast we had a good look around the island and found a few goodies to show you.




This should suit all the tiny people.






This lighthouse was inspired by by the RL one having the first woman lighthouse keeper at Gurnet Point at Plymouth New England.




This is the big house on the island.






After our exploring we headed back to the boat to head for our next destination, which was northwards to Amagansette.





We moored up here and went to explore.





There were a number of interesting things here.




The wreck of an old pirate ship.




Another of those doors




This one led to a sphere high above the island. We did not find this as good as the one in Bearskin Neck though.




A sign saying great surfing conditions, although as professional surfers we have to say the surf was not THAT good.




And what we wondered was the Doctor doing here. What strange aliens might there be?





After leaving this island, we headed east to Saltaire.





This is a barren place and nothing at all to be seen.




And so we carried on eastwards calling in at the lovely Plum Island for a break.




I was particularly fond of this bridge spanning a river there.




Then on again to the 2 islands making up the Gloucester sim where we had this close encounter with Moby Dick.




It had been a long day so this is where we moored for the night at the end of another glorious day's sailing.
