That time I went kayaking in the Atlantic Ocean. When I went out east in 2015, I hauled my kayak with me. This was the first time kayaking in salt water. The buoyancy difference from fresh to saltwater is amazing! I felt a hundred pounds lighter! This is off the coast of Maine. For awhile it looked like the sailboat was going to run into the lighthouse, but it went behind the lighthouse island.

A color landscape photo from a kayak in the ocean. The nose of a yellow kayak points forward from the lower left side of the frame. The ocean and sky are blue and there's wispy clouds in the sky. The ocean is pretty flat. A two masted white sailboat in the distance is moving from center right toward the left. At center left a point of land sticks out to almost center frame. It's actually part of an island. On the point is a lighthouse with a white base and black upper part where the light is. A small square building with a red roof is next to the lighthouse on its left. Further left is a large two story building painted white with a red roof. A few conifer trees are visible on the island.
Lovely boat! But with that little wind, she could have had two topsails and a mizzen staysail out! But then you'd need a crew of a bazillion to manage it all. Lovely though.
