I cropped the painting for a better composition, and adjusted the background and the foreground. Tried to do better quality photos, I think it looks better now, what do you think?

Thanks Michael and Jon for your constructive comments, I appreciate your thoughts. To be honest personally I like the sailing yachts more than the fishing vessel, and thats why I gave too much attention to those.

Will have a go on lowering the values on the yachts a little bit.

I agree with Jon.  On the shadow sides of the hulls, instead of trying to put color into white paint,  try mixing a gray first ...  ... and then tint the gray.  Then you can paint the warm reflected light into that.  The first boat on the right is fine.

Hi, Andras - looking good! Personally I would lower the value (darken) the two left hand boats - they are taking my eyes away from the center of interest (the right hand boat)...the bottom hulls could be quite a bit darker and the white sides slightly darker, maybe with a reflect light (from the ground) effect. Your drawing and color are very nice!
