Sunset Pics

Post by TheSailingRode »

My favorite picture of our boat. My awesome girlfriend took it during a recent trip to the Ponce Inlet area of Florida. We were at a restaurant dock about to leave to go find our anchorage. I was engaged in a discussion about the boat (26M) and our cruising trips with some tourists. I did not even notice the sunset and she showed me the pic after we anchored. She is a great cruising partner.

Anyone else with great sunset pics? It is always one of our favorite parts of cruising in the boat.

My youngest (then 13) took this shot with an original EVO smart phone a couple years ago. I think it is one of my all time favorite shots.

Here's some shots just east of Camas, WA. There wasn't any wind and we were just letting the current take us home.
