There is also something about the trees being close to, almost overhanging, the boat. Not sure if it is a slight air of menace, as if they are looming over the boat but there is def something there for me.
The second, by comparison, feels disjointed.

Kevin, I like this one a lot more. Just seems better balanced with the boat further to the left.
