Classics in the water

A few photos of some classic wooden boats taken at the Classic Boat Museum in Clayton, NY on the St Lawrence River. I took these photos back in my film days with my first SLR, a Pentax, and the quality is not up to today's standards, but with a bit of processing of the scanned prints I hope you find the images to be interesting. A collection of vintage race boats will follow in a subsequent post.
