The image itself is greater than 10,000 pixels wide and begged to be  made into a 4k ken burns style video using final cut pro :-)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The property is in a community called Medomak, which is in the town of Bremen, ME.&nbsp; The company that owns the property now is Community Shellfish.  My sister contacted the company and received the following response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;That is definitely our dock! It has a few \u201ccompositional adjustments\u201d excluding the stone pier and placing the old house in the left closer to the water. Interestingly, though, he is probably standing on the deck of the Cora Cressy Schooner wreck which was intact at that time!!! That is pretty cool! You didn\u2019t mention that he dated the painting but it makes sense! Please come visit us this summer!! I have put the links to our websites below which show many pics of the waterfront and I have attached a few pics as well.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/chapspics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/boe-17-of-18-sml.jpg\" data-lbwps-width=\"675\" data-lbwps-height=\"900\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/chapspics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/boe-17-of-18-sml-300x400.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"675\" height=\"900\" data-id=\"8034\" src=\"https:\/\/chapspics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/boe-17-of-18-sml.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8034\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chapspics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/boe-17-of-18-sml.jpg 675w, https:\/\/chapspics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/boe-17-of-18-sml-300x400.jpg 300w, https:\/\/chapspics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/boe-17-of-18-sml-600x800.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 675px) 100vw, 675px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/chapspics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/boe-3-of-18-sml.jpg\" data-lbwps-width=\"1200\" data-lbwps-height=\"800\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/chapspics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/boe-3-of-18-sml-600x400.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" data-id=\"8035\" src=\"https:\/\/chapspics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/boe-3-of-18-sml.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8035\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chapspics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/boe-3-of-18-sml.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/chapspics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/boe-3-of-18-sml-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/chapspics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/boe-3-of-18-sml-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s an interesting youtube video on the Cora Cressy Schooner&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Rotting Remains of the Schooner &quot;Cora F.
