Looking at the rigging, I think the boat is the RS Feva.

Interesting that there don't seem to be registration numbers on the RIB's.
Tidal, and it's a big schooner on the other pier.

Correct! The first photo shows some of the RS Fevas waiting to be rigged for the event. I hear there will be 35 boats entered with over 50% female participation. They expect to have 50 boats for the RS Feva nationals next month. But what country are we in? And who will be first to point us to the sailing club?

OK - so it had to be southern hemishere for nationals to be next month...

Good sleuthing. Well done! The photo is of Naval Point Club Lyttleton which is near Christchurch. The RS Feva sailors have been invited there to take part in the SailGP Inspire program.

Museum time!

The name AINSLIE on the Finn sail is a big clue! It's in the National Maritime Museum in Falmouth, Cornwall.
I think the last time I was in Cornwall was in 1973 which was way before the time the museum was built. Looks like I have to put it on my bucket list if I ever go back to England.

I debated a shot that didn't have the Finn but I guess I picked too easy.
OK - tillerman - you are up...

Lake Paranoa, Brasilia, Brazil?
p.s. In which case, the name of the image "nuts.png" is a Brazil Nuts clue
