You know how some days you get to work and there’s either a delay in getting started on your work or you simply have nothing to do for an hour or so? or maybe you’re early for a meeting? Thus, you’re bored.
I guess boat captains have those sort of starts to the day occasionally.
I was up at 7:15am looking out the hotel window upon the harbor in Portland, Maine and noticed this fine, large, red boat slowly passing through the scene in front of me. I thought “better take a pic since he’ll be gone before I can sketch it.” I did, then I sat down at the table and drew the sketch. I studied it a moment then looked back out the window.
The boat was passing by again headed in the other direction…nice and slow, just like before. It was like he was just out toodling around with no particular place to go.
Perhaps what I witnessed was a bored boat captain?

Could be he’s a fish trawler, trolling for fish. Or picking up lobster pots? Or maybe he was just enjoying the scenery.
