A serene moment at the marina as a large sailboat approaches the dock. The reflections of the masts, gentle sounds of the harbor, and the crew getting ready for the next sail — pure calm before the next adventure. #Sailing #DockingTime #SailingVibes #HarborLife #BoatLife #Marina #YachtingCommunity #CalmWaters #SailingAtDawn
