Sailing in Plymouth Harbor! Weathervane Wednesday

 This weathervane was photographed on Water Street in Plymouth, Massachusetts.


This nice three dimensional sailboat weathervane is located on a tiny cupola over Ziggy's Ice Cream shop in Plymouth, Massachusetts.  It is located across the street from the waterfront and the home berth of the Mayflower II at the state pier, and a few blocks from Plymouth Rock.  I think a nautical weathervane like this boat is very appropriate for the location! 

This little weathervane may be small, but it has a lot of great details - a flag flying in the breeze from the top of the mast, three porthole windows in the cabin, and nice lines on the hull of the boat.  It has weathered to a nice brown color in the salty sea air.  You can easily see this weathervane from the street or sidewalk while you are waiting for your ice cream cone or sandwich.
