Comments:
Think it looks like the Carbide, passing Heckness point. Same vessel as picture #16160?.
What sort o sail rig is this Fred? Looks very clumsy but I am not a sailor.
Is that top sail called a flying Gallant, but are they not narrower and higher than this one?
I would say the buildings on the land behind might be Boathouse, Crockness.
