ABC Wednesday - B is for Bagged Blue Boat

I live on a street with three marinas. During the winter, one stores sailing yachts, one speed boats and the other these large cruisers, which are shrink wrapped until Summer begins.

To join ABC Wednesday and find others who play, visit the lovely Mrs. Nesbitt's Place.

  7. Can I keep the shrink wrap on when I use them? You know, just cut out a couple of holes to see and such. That way, I wouldn't have to scrape barnacles off the bottom...I could just get a new shrink wrap.

  13. I frequently see shrink-wrapped boats going down the freeway and wonder what adventures they will enjoy. (They are on trailers or the backs of big trucks--not sailing down the road on their own.)

  20. Boats are cool... I once went on a river holiday on the Thames... I was only about 12/13 or so... what I realized REALLY quickly was how boats ... more than anything else in life, I mean far more than cars or houses are indicators of status ... I wasn't brought up to be a snob but "how big is your boat" seemed to be the pride of the river~!!

  21. There's something very special about boats and marinas that make it possible to stroll around and look at them for hours even if they are not yours. Or mine in this case.

  23. The PS wants a sailboat really bad. He's been looking at the bagged up boats along the highway and waiting for the day their pristine wrap is tugged away to trigger his boat-lust once again.
