Oh my god, ship shipping! Amazing! I love your language here – the humor is great, but it glides across the screaming waves of the Sea of Voices, silent as a Mutersalted throat, uncaring of ropes uncoiling and hissing like snakes or the drunken ravings of your wine glasses attempting mutiny - no, the first sound you hear the yacht make is a sonorous note like a hum when you both spot a copper-burnished steamer chugging around, for example, is also really vivid.

Well...you've navigated these choppy waters before, but this was certainly an unexpected ship.

Perfect.
