Awful nice of the sail boat to come by to add to your picture! Not too often you get to see these two towers in one picture, especially from this angle. Thanks for sharing. Does look to have been a little hazy that day?

Great photo Barry. Nice angle on the lights. I agree that the sailboat is a nice added touch. Were you some some sort of a cruise or your own boat? Now that I finally got your name right, I'll use it!

Nice to see the 2 lights together. Were you on land or water taking that picture? Thanks for sharing Grover.

smile Hi all - You should check out the article posted under the General Forum "Demand for old windmills exceeds supply". It tells of a plan to use a windmill to power the twin lights on Thacher Island. cool

Neat photo Barry! It's been a number of years since I saw Thacher's from the water.
