I think you've done well with this considering it was such a find. The choice of viewpoint is excellent.

Thanks guys, I chuckled a bit when I saw this unfold. Apparently, the boat was in the bed of the pickup truck. Onced the truck was stuck in the surf, they ditched the boat to lighten the load . . . but to no avail. A wrecker was dispached with a sturdy winch to pull them out. For a few $$$! -- Bruce

ROFL!!! I was so taken with the boat and the beautiful light that I didn't even see the background element. Good one!

Put this one in the dictionary next to the word 'irony'!!! What a find!!! Fantastic 'story shot'!

I hear that salt water is really, Really, REALLY good for all the parts of a vehicle, particularly the engine! Did you stick around to see what happened after this? ~ Lonnit
