A recent fascination with boats led us to the marina. It is always a pleasure to spend the afternoon walking along the bay; it is so relaxing to hear the sounds of the wind blowing, the boats rocking gently in the water, and the occasional splash from pelicans diving for fish.
My crew was determined to find their boats. They even dressed the part, Snow in her striped shirt and Maku in his skull and bones.
Among all the fancy yachts, simple Snow picked this boat.
Maku was a bit disappointed not to find a tugboat and an icebreaker.
But happy feelings were back again after making a boat that stays afloat.

Great pictures to tell a lovely story.
The kids look lovely! Looks like you've got to bring Maku to the big port to see tugboats. You don't want to disappoint that sweet little face don't ya?
I mean.. you don't wanna.... do ya? ^_^
You can find a tug boat moored on the Coquina side of the Beer Can Island bridge. I used to get there by going out Cortez Rd. to Bradenton Beach and turning south. About a 1.5 miles down the road headed towards Longboat Key is the Coquina Walking Park and moored right beside it is the tugboat.

Thanks James. We haven't explored that area. We will check it out very soon. :)
