Great group...Looked up Chalupa as I'd never heard of one! Here's what I found, just for more fun...

A chalupa is a small boat, usually rowed or poled; they have shallow drafts and may or may not be equipped with a few flat slats used as seats. The origin of the word is Basque, from txalupa, adopted as chaloupe in French, shallop in English, and chalupa in Spanish. Circa 16th century

That description is exactly correct! Thanks. Reenactors actually rowed this boat to the festivities and made a landing near the Castillo de San Marcos National Park for the celebration. (That is the fort.)

Thought it would be fun to celebrate the end of summer with some memories of some summer fun...Boats have always been an important ingredient...So show us any type of boat with surounding landscape including water and other interesting parts of your composition...Your choice of color or B/W...
I'll be looking forward to seeing what you can come up with!!

A couple from my recent trip on the Bluenose II out of Lunenburg, Nova Scotia.

Shot from a Cessna ride along the Maine coast in the vicinity of Camden. The first one doesn’t quite fit the topic.

What can I say...boats in the water.

Both are beautiful compositions; serenity, with boats.

Judy, thanks for hosting this challenge. I look forward to many beautiful examples of boats and landscapes, as usually submitted in UHH. Here are a few from my archives, or even from recent adventures. It's Maine, lots of coast, lots of boats.
