Actually, no.
*Dons storyteller's hat.*
See, whenever I begin to work with a new setting, I first create a character - like, in the autumn of 2003, when I first considered running a Blackmoor game.
Then, I map out that character's biography for the game time or era that I want to cover - simply to get a first feel for the game.
So, back in 2003, the first character I created was Rowell, who we all know played quite the role in the LFC.
He comes off as a grim and cynical war captain, but he is really just Raymond Feist's Jimmy the Hand, ported to Blackmoor.
Rowell's partner in crime, in the case of the Coven, quite literally, was Merowech Rednose, a tech-savy gnome.
Now, I have to confess I don't recall if I invented him as an NPC, or if he was based on a character my good friend Matthias played in a campaign of mine.
Anyway, long story short, Merowech used a teleporter stone on a ghost ship, and thus crash-landed said naval vessel a few miles north of Jackport.
Never shy to make a coin, the adventuring party drove the ghosts out, and made the wreck their new base of operations;
in later campaigns, with other PCs, the wrecked-ship-turned-fortress simply served as an inn, with Merowech as the grumpy tavernkeeper with a pumpgun.
On your map, it would be more or less on the same latitude as Elf Town - probably, a bit more to the north, on the coast east of the unnamed forest.
