‘Little Boats, Not Afloat III’

‘Beached’
…the hiatus – between tides and voyages.
sometimes there is nothing but to wait…

‘Gone Voyaging’
an empty cradle
the vessel gone
mended and painted
fit for sea
put to sea
born again to voyage

‘Rescue Ready’
…let’s hope the boat’s not needed…

‘Port Stories’
…every voyage a story, of comings and goings upon the endless sea…


‘Boats On The Island V’
…the high tide is coming, promise!…


‘Boats On The Island IV’
…looking tired, and just a little mired…


…whatever floats your boat ( just not right now)…


‘Boats On The Island II’
…ah, the ebb tide
the lowest of the low
leaves us stranded
nowhere to go…


New Year’s Eve on Waiheke Island.
The rain came to dampen celebrations.
We walked in the wet; the boats sat on the hard, going exactly nowhere.
The year drizzled and fizzled to a close…

‘You’ll Do’
…a little the worse for wear, old mate.
been there and done that.
nothing a lick of paint won’t fix.
good to go, ready to put out to sea.
another voyage awaits, a couple of spare rowboats if things go awry.
yeah, you’ll do…

‘Canal Scene III’
…on a boat, in a tunnel, on a canal, between two rivers, somewhere in my recent memory…

‘Little Boats, Not Afloat II’
…just waiting for their time to come…

‘Masts & Wires’
…hold tight, be taut…

‘Trawler At Rest’
A fishing vessel moored in the calm sanctuary of Auckland’s downtown Viaduct Basin recently.
The fishermen get a break; as do the fish..!

‘Old Timer’
…different time, same sea…

‘Froth In The Wake’
…our destination before us,the churn behind…
