Pilot Boat


I finally had a little time to do a little artwork, so I did a little piece of art. This one is about 5" X 7", done with a Micron on card stock. It's one of the Bar Pilot boats up at Mayport that ferry the Bar Pilots back and forth to the huge cargo ships that come in and out of the Saint John's River. The Bar Pilots board the ships to navigate them through the channel to avoid the shifting sand bars, etc. This one is The Mayport, a Chesapeake class pilot boat.
