The oyster boat at first glance almost looks like it has waves crashing around it.

A lovely set of images.

I guess these boats haven't hit the water in a very long time

The wreck of the Peter Iredale hits the water every time the tide has come in since 1906.  The oyster boat is sitting on a bed of oyster shells.  There are mountains of oyster shells all around Willapa Bay, it's a big industry there.

It's funny because shipwrecks are something we don't see around here. You have to drive a bit east of Quebec city to start seeing a few.
Here, all we have are container ships and some 20 foot fiberglass leisure boats.
