Hi,
	This is my first posting to this group as well as my first attempt at
diddling ascii art. Hope it's not too basic for you all, seeing the calibre of
the talent here :) I liked the boat and tried not to mangle it too much! :)

I sorta lengthened the oars and made the boat stand out a bit here. Not sure
how else to do it since I'm a complete newbie to this sort of thing.

            o    o    o    o    o    o    o    o
             \_o, \_o, \_o, \_o, \_o, \_o, \_o, \_o,
         _____\/)__\/)__\/)__\/)__\/)__\/)__\/)__\/)_____
         \vvvvv\vvvv\vvvv\vvvv\vvvv\vvvv\vvvv\vvvv\vvvvv/ 
      ~~~~~~~~~~o~~~~o~~~~o~~~~o~~~~o~~~~o~~~~o~~~~o~~~~~~~~~
 
Original art: Julie P. Ciamporcero
Little diddle: Gerry Nelson

Any more improvements?
