It has been a while since I've seen a thread like this - the rules are simple: attempt to identify the location of the last posted picture in the thread. Once the picture poster confirms the first correct responder that person then gets to add a (sailing-related) picture to the thread and the game continues.

Since I'm no good at this type of guesswork my only chance of getting a picture into the thread is by starting it off with the following picture:

I know.. but not in this thread.. (I don't think??? if so, more sorry....)

Anyhow I guess I'd better quit guessing because I'm flush out of decent pics that haven't been used before..

In the meantime it's a freebie for someone....;)

I wish it was me the one who took that picture (panoramio hack), The second picture is Mount Melimoyu, In 2009 Chaiten went on, and caused a huge mess in the region. Ashes traveled across the continent and landed in our town. Every day cars were covered with a thin layer of ashes, and we are 900 nm away. I agree, it is a magnificent place to cruise.
Corcovado is a bit to the north, and looks different.

i was down there in 2010 and again in 2012 and the damage to Chaiten was unreal. the lahars flowed right through the middle of town destroying all in their path. bulldozers and backhoes were still working nonstop to clear the debris. very sad.

This is an easy one, so only reply right away if you haven't gotten one correct yet. Give a new person a chance for 24 hours.

I took this picture on Tuesday. Was in a meeting all day, and only had to turn my head to see the view.

Regards,
Brad

Please don't answer if you've gotten one correct already -- until 24 hours are up.

Definitely South Street Seaport. Unless I'm mistaken, taken from either the Prudential-Bach Building or, more likely, the American International Group Building.

So you got it obelisk:) - no need to wait for Brad top post the next picture..
