I found the next picture by clicking on the next button far more
interesting. What a waist.
I have spent 15 years on the ocean, and the problem with this photo is the
stem [the bow] visible below the water line would curve into the keel
[bottom of vessel],and with water this clear the straight water line would
not be as evident. The digital camera sensor is operating way beyond its
ability to record the SBR [subject brightness range] of this scene, and that
could account for the distorted water line.

Maybe its real but notice the ball or float to the left
of the boat: it has a reflection, the boat does not. Even if
the boat is sitting high on a V bottom which is painted
black one would expect to see some reflection from its white
sides. Also, although the image is not large enough to be
sure, there appears to my eye to be some odd blurring in the
water around the left side of the boat. Again, it _may_ be
legit but (as Red Skelton used to say) somehow it just don't
look right to me.
