About Boat - In Detail

There are a few things you immediately notice when boarding a open-ocean seafaring ship - everything is labelled, and everything is secured. Furthermore, all is bare and in the open. Dials, cranks, rope, knots , tools, signs, hatches, compasses, doo-dads, what-have-you's, everything! The details of boating, sailing, and being at sea are truly unique, and provide a wonderful arena for photography.

This is a group dedicated to documenting the weird, quirky, intriguing, and often bizarre behind the scene details of ships, boats, and seafaring jalopies. There are other great Flickr groups (see below) that document nautical material, but this purpose of this group is strictly to present the unique details associated with large seafaring ships.

I am relatively new to Flickr, and this is my first attempt at creating a Flickr group. I am by no means a professional photographer, but is that not the point of this community? I hope those who contribute share my intrigue in this subject.

Here are some other great groups I found:
The Boats Pool
Ropes and Nautical Things
Ships and Vessels
Ships of Sail
