HL has been very generous with their financial support and very helpful in rallying outside support to the causes of several lighthouse restoration efforts. They assisted the real Tybee, then issued a new Tybee sculpture. They assisted the real Hillsboro then issued a Hillsboro sculpture. They assisted Rockland Breakwater then ...

What do you think? Think they'll do it?

I want one, please.

Thanks, I hadn't made that connection before. I definately want one if they come out with a Rockland Breakwater HL.

I'd like to see it. Does anyone have any pictures of the real thing?

I was at Rockland Breakwater when back on the east coast last fall; it was sunset and the waves were lapping at our feet; made it about three quarters of the way out when my better judgment took over; breakwater is a little over a mile to the lighthouse; did get a picture although somewhat in the distance; also got a picture of most of the breakwater and a very small white building at the end; would be nice to have a HL

We also walked the entire breakwater to get some close up photos last Fall. It was a very enjoyable adventure. I have always thought that would be a nice light for HL to make...bring it on
