PHOTO GALLERY: Maine Windjammer Photo Contest Part Three
 |
| "Fun at Sea"credit: Curt Watts |
PEOPLE CATEGORY WINNERS
Always a tough category, we chose two winning photographs that capture the joy of windjamming...albeit in two very different ways!

| "To the Rescue"credit: James Boyle |
SCENICS CATEGORY WINNER
This was a nearly impossible category to fill because we had so many amazing images to choose from. We all know how exciting it is to be on a windjammer, but we chose Bernadette’s photo because it captures the fun of getting off a windjammer! At the end of the day, or first thing in the morning, guests often have a chance to go ashore and explore. And what a magical anchorage this is!
