Nice, Richard - particularly the waves and shadows in the shot of the more
traditional gaff-rigged sloop.

Trying to do serious boat portraits is really tough, because so many
elements have to come together perfectly - sky, sea, hull angle, sail angle,
position of any people. If I were you, I'd try converting all three to black
and white, and then play around with contrast and tonality.
