So many marinas, so little time. So much heat too!
Nice idea. Most would consider taking this raw image that is centered and use the rule of thirds to crop away much of the left side and some of the bottom to show the boat off to the left which when the eye sees the image shows more balance between the other boats, the docks, the shore foliage and the shore facilities and is much more interesting to look at. It can be amazing what better cropping can do to make a photo convey more than just a simple inventory of something. Give it a thought but if you are happy with it the way it is leave it as is. Most would crop as suggested. The rule of thirds is a good way for the image to reflect what the eye sees in the best way. I like it and can see how it could be even more.

Thanks Lance... I feel the same way but at times center the subject when it's appropriate!
In this case it improves it substantially to crop as suggested in my opinion which is why they call it art..subjective with no right 9r wrong. I did it to a download and it much improved the core image response
