I am not a motor boat person, I´m a sailor. But as it is, I don´t have a sailing boat, I have part of a motor boat. It can´t beat sailing, but I have to confess that it´s still quite lovely to be able to go wherever you want on the water.
This boat of ours comes with a new feature compared to our old one - you can actually maneuver it to exactly where you want to go. That sounds stupid, I know - how hard can it be to steer a motor boat with a propeller in the back?! - but I assure you that with the wrong boat and narrow circumstances it is perfectly possible to make a complete ass of yourself EVERY TIME you´re trying to fit your boat into your assigned spot by the dock. Ask me, I know...
It may not be a beauty in the boat world, but it´s safe and I don´t feel worried driving it by myself, so I love it.

Hi, Nina. It's nice that you have a boat and can explore the waters. Nice drawing. Love the details. Great post and journaling.
Great drawing - very inviting, with the plump boat and the sunshine!
Makes me want to step on board and go adventuring

There is something SO cool about being out on the water. Seems as if you can get closer to aquatic birds and animals from the water, too...love the drawing!
Beautiful line work and textures!
