Peggy Sue

Locarno Beach, Vancouver

the race is on...alas the Peggy Sue is merely a forlorn bystander


If you knew..Peggy Sue
Then you’d know why I feel blue
Without Peggy..my Peggy Sue
(Buddy Holly)

Not your best day if you were to own this boat. Wonderful composition, clarity, lighting and only needs more water at this point. Voted

A fabulous composition with the peaks of sails in the background. Seeing a boat like this is very distressing ! V

Simple day-sailors frolic and compete while the fancy yacht lies strand3ed, careened from neglect at low tide. Very engaging image! BV

Looks like Peggy Sue finished first and the crew is already in the pub ;-))....or were they first in the Pub,before entering and finishing the race.This is more plausible ;-))
