Too far south. If you head out past the island in the photo the next place you'll come to is Ibiza.

It is indeed Fred. On the Cap de la Nau which is the nearest point of mainland Spain to the Balearic Islands. From the top you can see Ibiza which is about 50 miles away. Very nice.
Your turn.

Posted By: Zanshin

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/16/2020 07:38 AM

I missed the correction you had posted, it was on the previous page and all I saw was this page. No worries, you were close enough to getting the right name and you'd correctly identified where the island is. I've sailed past that barren rock a couple of times and each time the seas were just a bit too much for me to anchor on the leeward side and climb up the path to the top.
Posted By: Fred

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/16/2020 12:40 PM

An interesting side note, the red buoy began life in eastern Canada, ran away from home and hitched rides on currents before ending up here. I learned that from George Jeffrey (pictured here and also on the cover of the 2014/15 Cruising Guide to the Leeward Islands).

Attached picture DSCN0943.jpg
Posted By: Zanshin

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/16/2020 01:35 PM

Offhand I can only think of two islands that are that flat in the Leewards - Anegada and Barbuda. I have been to Anegada many times and haven't seen a red buoy like that one so I'm going to guess Barbuda.
Posted By: Fred

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/16/2020 01:43 PM

Zanshin, you are correct with Barbuda and you are up.
Posted By: Zanshin

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/16/2020 01:50 PM

That was a lucky guess - because of my boat's deep draft I've never gone there but it is on my list of places to visit.

Going from flat to hilly... Where is this?

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/16/2020 02:23 PM

I would say that this is the side of the volcano in Montserrat. That appears to be sulfur deposits along with volcanic ash.
Posted By: Zanshin

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/16/2020 02:35 PM

That was much faster than I expected. The next picture was to have been this one, which probably would have made guessing the location a lot easier. All yours, XSMFOX

Posted By: SXMFOX

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/17/2020 02:47 PM

We’ve been several times, and on each occasion the kids were always there, and they would make their presents known by yelling. It was hard to sit out on the balcony and drink coffee, and if you ever started throwing coins, watch out! It was fun though. This is the old dock, where the ship would pull along side the dock as if it were going straight into the island.

Not Puerto Rico. This island is smaller.

I'll take a guess with St. Kitts?

Not in the Caribbean.

Well you have spent a lot of time in Hawaii so maybe the big island - Hawaii?

Very close Fred! A little further west.

I don't know the geography of Hawaii that well but Maui is a possibility.

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/19/2020 01:22 AM

Maui it is! This sugar mill closed 2 months later. It was the last sugar mill in Hawaii. Fred is up!

A shot in the dark, someplace not too far from you although I would expect to see more houseboats than sailboats, Norris Lake?

Wow Sleepychef, I thought that one might last awhile before I posted this one which I was sure you would nail. You are up.

For not much of a reason, I'll try Cairo?

Yes Carol the Hebridean Princess is the boat the Queen holidays on a week or 2 every year. Most guests use it as a country club sailing 3 or 4 times a year,

Looks like some US city spread out over a large area in a basin - Phoenix?

sleepychef--wow, that's cool! Was she onboard when you worked on the boat?

Not Phoenix, but the US is correct. Go east.

I was about to guess that also Carol! Sure does look like it

Carol, you a correct! This is Miami. Carol is up!

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/20/2020 06:37 PM

Don't recognise it so I'll go for the obvious... St Martin/SintMaarten?
Posted By: Carol_Hill

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/20/2020 06:51 PM

Wrong island.
Posted By: xrayman67

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/20/2020 06:56 PM

St. Kitts?
Posted By: Carol_Hill

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/20/2020 07:04 PM

Nope. Jeannius was closer.
Posted By: Jeannius

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/20/2020 07:14 PM

I do recognise it now, I think, Carol. St Barts.
Posted By: Carol_Hill

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/20/2020 07:42 PM

Nope, not St. Barts. Your first guess was close, just not exactly correct.
Posted By: Jeannius

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/20/2020 07:56 PM

I'm out for the time being as I think I'd need google to get the name of the small island that is part of St Martin but has it's own name.

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/20/2020 08:00 PM

I figure Zanshin will probably pop in any time with the correct answer.... smile

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/20/2020 10:27 PM

Would it be Anguilla?
Posted By: Fran

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/21/2020 12:04 AM

Now I know for sure I posted that last response earlier tonight but the timer says I posted it yesterday at 10:27 PM. Somethings wacky here.

Fran--your time settings are off.

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/21/2020 12:24 AM

Fran--not Anguilla. Jeannius is on the right track, separate island, technically part of St. Martin.

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/21/2020 02:08 AM

I know where this is Carol! I’ll give some more time to maybe let others answer

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/21/2020 02:10 AM

And I must say, it’s at such a good angle, that it is very deceptive! Good job!

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/21/2020 02:25 AM

Fox--anyone that knows St. Martin well will know it, but I thought it was a good picture..

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/21/2020 06:05 AM

I just looked at the thread and saw the picture. I've wanted to go to this beach, but couldn't due to my boat's draft and I didn't want to take the ferry with the hoi polloi smile

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/21/2020 11:47 AM

Tintamarre is the little island I've been to so I'm guessing it is there?

Carol, I checked my computer time settings, they are correct. The post clock says one time for the initial post and then on the next post it was completely different. This morning it seems to have corrected itself somehow. I know I'm not the only one seeing this but oh well, not a world shaking crisis. grin
Posted By: Carol_Hill

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/21/2020 01:07 PM

Jeannius--no, not Tintamarre. There is nothing in the way of restaurants on Tintamarre. I am going to say that 18 hours have passed, so google away, everyone!

No, not Playa but you're a little closer than Fred was. Keep going south. Another look.

Tulum?

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/22/2020 11:45 AM

No Tulum, but getting closer, still south. Hint: this used to be a sleepy little fishing village. The first time we went there the main 'street' was hard packed sand with large, ship mooring lines for speed bumps, now it's concrete.

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/22/2020 01:28 PM

Nothing much further south...Costa Maya expanded as a cruise stop when Carnival Corp built a pier
Posted By: Fran

Re: Game Time Part 12 - 11/22/2020 02:17 PM

Costa Maya is the cruise ship stop, this village is about a mile or so further down and existed before the cruise ship pier. I'll give it to JP for Costa Maya but the village is actually Mahahual. You're up JP
