Nautical and Nice (May Contest Theme) Temptation

I can't resist putting up a couple of photos--that I won't be entering--that fit the theme.

When we were on Bonaire in March celebrating my Medicare birthday, this gorgeous yacht was docked in the marina adjacent to
the resort where we were staying. I got curious about it, so did some googling.

The Teleost. It is definitely a toy for the 1%. You can rent it--for a week--for the bargain price of $225,000. It sleeps 10.
Find out more--and see interior photos--https://www.yachtcharterfleet.com/luxury-charter-yacht-22286/teleost.htm

And here it is backing out of the marina to go on its way.

going back into history, a/k/a 1812!



FYI, this battle was fought in my front 'yard,' and was reconstructed the year I arrived here! MORE pics available.

Too bad they don't restrict the boat traffic around the re-enactment.

a friend tried to go out and was redirected, so the traffic we see was limited. Do have pics with a couple little boats around the big ships.

More later!!!
