Looks like that second boat's sails are luffing. Two points to larboard and sheet it home.
They are the teens in the sailing program at the AYC. I picture the sailor of the second boat trying to mess up the path for the young woman behind him. Or perhaps it's the young man in the third boat stealing the wind from the second boat. Or perhaps it's the wind wiggling the artist's easel..... I left the luff as a point of departure for the stories it might inspire. Thanks for the seafarin' comment, matey.
Aaaaarrr, always glad to see the canvas spread before the wind.
I liked this painting the first time I saw it, but I like it a little more each time I see it. I think that is the sign of an excellent painting.
