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 think you got it, Smurph.... Ocean House would be the large building on the hill....

One of my favorite routes is to anchor in back of Fisher's for the night and sail out past Watch Hill on my way to Newport or the islands. So I recognized it immediately. Here's a hint for the pic I posted: It's opposite a famous research facility. It's morning.

I'd plump for Woods Hole as the institute. Cannot find that cardinal on a rock but it would appear boat is anchored in Hadley Harbour looking out. Doesn't seem built up enough to be Yorktown.

It's the entrance marker to the outside harbor, probably 200 yards (guessing) off the southern beach. Coordinates are 41-30-55 70-41-55. It's a nice spot to anchor in good weather although not really close to anything. It's too far from Woods Hole to access by dink and it'd be risky trying to negotiate the current getting across anyway. Everyone here probably knows it but Woods Hole has nasty currents.

Could the latest picture be up inside Pt. Judith Pond ?
