Some time ago I showed you an image of the retired lifeboat 'Carlot'. The 'Carlot' has been replaced by this contemporary version with the name 'Zeemanshoop' (Hope of the seafarer). In this picture she's on her way to a SAR (Search And Rescue) exercise at the North Sea west of Flushing, Zeeland, The Netherlands.

Good candid action capture, and I see it was a bit choppy out there that day. tigs=^..^=

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

I see the Dutch colors loud and clear on this one - wonderful maritime capture as usual Mr. C.

Your sea-faring days would be a great 'talking point', I would have loved to hear of some of your tales.

A giant "bobber"... so where is the monofilament line? (or is that too colloquial, a "bobber" here is a small float for fishing)

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.

You do such a good job capturing these fine looking vessels. Growing up on the Great lakes, I'm used to the big ore boats such as the Edmund Fitzgerald.

Outstanding action and detail - love the movement of the water - that's one slick line beauty
