That's Newfoundland. Hardly "Oak Island Area". Boston, MA is as close to Oak Island as any of those yellow dots. ;-)

From where I am standing, Boston is also in the Oak Island area ;-)

Cuper's Cove colony in Newfoundland was a Francis Bacon colonization project ca 1610. You can invoke a lot of the same characters that people want to attribute to OI to early Newfoundland, including the Norse and the Scraelings. I have an ancestor, an American privateer, who was captured just off the coast of Newfoundland and forced to serve on the ship of the British pirate John Phillips. They later mutinied and sailed the ship back to Baltimore where there was a famous trial. A book was written about it. It's considered to be one of the best documented accounts of such a turn of events that exists.
