That's actually pretty typical of this type of boat from the 1890's 
through the 1930's.

Except for the butt ugly superstructure & that unfortunatly positioned
air vent, it's a nice looking boat.

Nice shot Peter.

That's a beautiful photo of a beautiful boat.

I know they're lots more work to maintain than modern fibreglass (or
whatever modern runabouts are made of) boats, but there's something
about a handcrafted wooden boat that is indescribably beautiful.

Great choice of lens; you really used the fisheye well here.  Love the
composition.

Terrific photo!

cheers,
frank

Those old wooden boats are really works of art in themselves.  Neat
