The picture above, called |

"On the Open Sea," |

was created from a photograph of the |

taken in Southamption waters which was then superimposed on a separate photograph of the open sea and sky of the North Atlantic and then colorized. What is created is a photographic scene of how |
14 |
would have looked out on the open sea in April of 1912. |

Sailing on Raritan Bay |
38 |
Many a happy summer in the 1980s was spent cruising on the Raritan Bay south of Staten Island in a Catalina 25; a full-hull shaped sailboat with a swing keel, a horizontal skeg aft and a low-swept trunk cabin. It was then that I got to be called "Commander Sam" by the vessel's owner since I spent most of my time at the helm sailing the vessel while he was enjoying his cigar and a cold beer.You may also want to check out: |
