Fab Freebie: Under The Sea

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***

And the randomly selected person who’s starting their new year off with prize is… Jennifer (who answered this week’s question with a Canadian folk lyric – which I had to look up, mind you: “Lukey’s boat is painted green, Ha, me boys!”). Congrats Jennifer!

Raise your hand if you know what a bathymetric chart is. I didn’t before this giveaway, but it’s basically like a topographic map for what lies underwater. But the more important thing to know is that the married duo behind Below the Boat turns these charts into gorgeous, laser-cut, hand-assembled works of art. They’re beautifully intricate and fascinatingly detailed. And they’ve got lots of bodies of water from the east coast, west coast, and even some lakes in between. One of you is gonna win up to $300 worth of bathymetric chart-y goodnesst this week. So… ahoy!

    BOAT ME!

    My favorite boat adventure was our small yacht tour that we took around the islands of Greece. I’d do that again in a heartbeat :)

    BOAT ME!

    If I could go on any boat right now it’d be my families pontoon boat in Rehoboth Bay in Delaware. I love family vacations and enjoying the warm summer months on the water :)

    BOAT ME!

    My husband is obsessed with bass fishing, so that’s what we’re doing every summer weekend! Boat + puppy + sun + good book = perfection. :)

    BOAT ME! I’m happiest on a fishing boat in calm seas…although if I could afford to own a fancy yacht that would probably be pretty nice too! :)

    Boat Me! I would love to have a house boat, although my husband would always opt for a canoe…Texas Water Safari competitor. :)

    BOAT ME! I get motion sickness, so boats aren’t my thing, but I’ve never been on a cruise and I’d like to see what happens!

    BOAT ME!

    The hubs and I were just discussing how we would love a unique map of the Chesapeake Bay in our home. This would be perfect!

    I spent my childhood in lake country, so I have lots of fond memories on speedboats and pontoons, although a few days on a sailboat wouldn’t hurt either.

    Boat me!! I love the water! Anything from luxury cruises to a canoeing camping trip on the Black Creek (south Mississippi)! I’ve been on a few sailing trips but I don’t do well in deep water on little boats.. but I like going out on smaller bodies of water!

    BOAT ME!

    This is tough one, I’d love a kayak but I wouldn’t say no to pretty much any floating device!

    BOAT ME! – I would be in a fishing boat in Alaska off of the Prince or Whales Island in search of Salmon, Halibut and Snapper! – Or a catamaran in Hawaii enjoying the dolphins swimming and swirling beside the boat!
