PhotoHunt: Digital


Even maritime has gone digital .. thankfully. I am from a family of sailors and remember being in the fog with just a blow horn and wondering how far the ocean floor was from the boat's rudder. As the saying goes, 'you've come a long way, baby!'

This is my brother-in-law's boat. We frequently travel over Nantucket Sound to the Vineyard and Nantucket harbors during the summer. Digital instruments make these jaunts less stressful should the weather change quickly.

Hi M, great photo and take on this week's theme. Looks like a great looking boat. It's so cool that you come for a family of sailors. I can only imagine how the digital instruments makes it much for safer and easy for your summer jaunts.

Have a wonderful Mother's Day Weekend!

Cool digitals. Lucky to have a boat in the family. I don't have any boating friends so I never get to get on the water even with so much of it here in PNW.
