I can’t understand why, but I instantly recognized this schooner . . . which I saw a year and a half ago here.
It was anchored in Gravesend Bay.
I still know nothing more about her I know a bit more about her . . . check the comments. That looks like a pinked stern, which could make it a downrigged 65′ Tom Colvin design. Rosemary Ruth was Colvin. And I have an update on Rosemary Ruth, which I’ll post one of these days.
Ambergris, from SW Harbor ME.
All photos, WVD, who wonders if anyone knows the boat.

posting for Christian D: “This reminds me of my gg grandfather’s (Thomas S. Noble) numerous sketches from the Bensonhurst shore looking out over Gravesend with studies of sailboats, sloops, skiffs, docks, and land ladies strolling the shore circa 1904-07. He was a inlander from Kentucky who had brief moment of fames during his early days but struggled to paint what he wanted and make a good living after starting a family. He retired to Brooklyn during his last years to be near his daughters, and it seems that he regained his passion and interest in his subjects depicting the waters of NY and all natural and man-made beauty and activity.
Heres few samples from my and my cousin’s “blog” of his work
