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!

Anna B says
BOAT ME!
I love sailing, but my favorite memory of being on a boat was crewing an eight rowing shell. I was on a college crew team at Oxford when I was there, and you just can’t beat being out on the river early in the morning when the mist is hovering over the city and your crew is cutting gracefully through the water. A kayak or canoe gets closer to that, so I like them, too.
Holly S says
Boat me!! A canoe on a bugless day.
