boats on river 1340PM 220816_0506.wav

A distant scream from a girl by the river and a speedboat approaching. Than the waves lapping against the stone breakwater. A smaller motor boat that produces smaller waves. The man doesn't seem to know how fast to get to his fishing spot. A horn in the distance. Then more boats. it's busy on the river. The sound of summer and of people who, unlike many, are not affected by the high energy prices caused by the horrific war in Ukraine.

General: Summer afternoon on the river with many boats. The emphasis is on the waves hitting the breakwater. for this, the microphones are about 150 cm from the waves and an extra Hydrophone has been hung on the water. This hydrophone provides some extra depth in the recordings. Sometimes a lot of wind.
