Unless you already know from the clues here, you’ll have to guess: from left to right and at anchor, Vane Brothers Chesapeake, Wye River, and Tuckahoe. Slightly off center to the right is Scotia Sea. The twin raked funnels I won’t identify til later.
So yes, clearly this is another watershed. Am I cheating on boro6 by blogging about this? No way!! I don’t use the word “cheating” that way. Did Henry Hudson “cheat” on Europa by exploring new passages and connections? Did the Apollo 11 folks cheat on the Earth? By my perspective, sampling of all sorts spices our inner broth, chases off monotony, sustains life, and just follows logically from curiosity and wonder. If you call it cheating, then you might say I cheat all the time. But to do otherwise would be to cheat myself. End of rant.
Any guesses on the location?
Scotia Sea is ex-Mr Shep. Guess where Scotia Sea is located before clicking here.
Bohemia here passes . . .Campbell Field. Now that’s a clue.
All I’ll say about Jupiter now is that it was built in 1902 in this city at the yard of Neafie & Levy.
Jupiter‘s horns. I’d love to hear them.
M as in Myle . . . pronounced “my lee.”
This city also hosts the cruiser USS Olympia, and
the slightly older look-alike of the sixth boro’s very own Peking. This bark is Moshulu, which in the Seneca language means “one who fears nothing.” It was aboard this vessel that the author Eric Newby once worked.
And this is the city of brotherly (and sisterly and everybodily, one would hope) love. The two raked stacks off in the distance in first foto top the SS United States, launched the year I was born: such a young fast creature she is.

In case you missed the hint above, TWO NEW messages have arrived from Henry Hudson, modulated by hurricane winds and arriving across 400 years almost precisely. Check them here and here. I have to confess, I feared we’d lost his signal, but . . . oh the joys of 21st PLUS 17th century technology!!
