Dedication
Front Inscription
Source: MATo the men who sailed the tall ships
To the men who worked the small ships
They charted the seas
They mapped out the land
Some reaped her rich bounties
Some sadly ran aground
To those men and ships
Who never made it home
We have erected this lighthouse and penned this poem
Written by Mariee Hesford
This lighthouse sculpture was created by Aubrey Panizza and sponsored by the Cervantes Country Women`s Association to honour and pay tribute to the many lives lost and the ships that have been wrecked off the coast of Cervantes.
