It's not moving fast here, but that sleek little runabout caught the eye of these middle-age lovers on a dock by the Piscataqua River.

The Piscataqua, a replica of a 19th-century gundalow, a barge-style flat-bottomed boat with a single lateen sail. Here it drifts past the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, whose specialty is maintaining nuclear submarines. We didn't know it at the time but this was the Piscataqua's first day of sailing.

St. John's Episcopal Church looks very commanding up the road from the Piscataqua River.
