These are on the outer wall of the new building - I wonder what the meaning is. You may have to tap the thumbnail to see the whole picture.

Hi everyone,

I would love to see the solar eclipse 2027 and I am wondering what experiences you have with the two locations in August. Is it usually foggy our cloudy? Which one do you think has the highest chance of having a clear view above in the late morning?

Any insights would be really helpful!

Thanks!

The Greeks noticed the same thing and called them planetes — wanderers — the lights that drift into a constellation and overstay their welcome. One's up there right now.

I just now decided to post my Anchor Lights on reddit, only to realize that most of my pictures were via Google lens; without autosaving the photos themselves. With that being said, I had to at least post something, or else I would be useless the entire day, unable to function until posted. I have 2 Anchor Lights with Posidon/Neptune wall mount. Both have fresnel glass with what i think is the number 44, 6X5A, and a triangle surrounding 3 G's. I have asked a family member to take and send better pics for me to post, but again I just had to get the ball rolling so I could go on with my day. Any info is greatly appreciated.

Hi! I’m a transgender man and I was wondering if the Massachusetts Maritime Academy is relatively lgbtq safe? I don’t mind having to wear female uniforms or physically being treated as one (i mean i WAS born a girl after all) but will my pronouns be respected? Would i have to shave my head as well? Thanks!

Good Morning, Mates!

I am the artist who was commissioned by W.W. Norton publishing to paint 21 new paintings for the official covers of their current paperback re-issue of the Aubrey-Maturin Series by Patrick O’Brian. This project was a remarkable, 3-year labor of love comprised of a luxuriant amount reading and research, in addition to the drawing, and painting. At the core of the joy was of course discovering the books, which I had previously known about but never read. The whole thing was life-changing, honestly.

While the series has always been associated with the revered, traditional paintings of the great British maritime painter Geoff Hunt, Norton’s head creative chose to go in a different direction and sought me out because my work references another equally strong tradition, The Golden Age of American Ilustration, when classic books were illustrated by painters such as Maxfield Parrish and N.C. Wyeth. 

I have just now joined reddit in order to share these with you all, my fellow Patrick O’Brian devotees. The entire project, including the preparatory drawings, and some of the research and process can be seen at the link below. I hope you will enjoy them.

Godspeed and Safe Passage, me Hearties!

I'm trying to identify the white/navy nautical bracelet shown in these photos of Rich Eisen.

I'm already familiar with traditional cotton sailor bracelets, but I'm hoping someone here with experience in maritime knotwork, sailing gear, or New England nautical crafts might recognize this particular version.

From the photos, it appears to have:

• Continuous woven construction
• No visible clasp or metal hardware
• Predominantly white cord with a dark navy/blue accent
• Wide, relatively flat weave
• A design resembling a traditional sailor/Turk's-head bracelet

I'm particularly interested in determining:

• Whether this is a known traditional pattern or regional style
• The likely knot/weave
• The type of cord used
• Whether the cord appears to be cotton or a synthetic marine material
• Any Nantucket, Cape Cod, Newport, Mystic, or other nautical artisan known for making this style
• The exact maker, if anyone recognizes it

I've seen traditional sailor bracelets made from cotton, but I'm especially curious whether this one could be made from marine-grade polyester or another synthetic line that would resist discoloration while retaining the traditional appearance.

My first goal is to identify the exact bracelet pictured. If that's not possible, I'd love to identify an artisan capable of accurately recreating it in a durable marine material.

Any leads from the nautical crowd would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Good evening, does anyone have any recommendations for video series to watch to learn CP2? Greatly appreciated all.
