"Florence Oregon Sailboats" Digital Art, DigiArt Paintography by Barbara Chichester...taken on the coastal area of Florence Oregon.....The Florence area was originally inhabited by the Siuslaw tribe of Native Americans. Some state that the city was named for state senator A. B. Florence, who represented Lane County from 1858�1860; another notion is that Florence was named for a French vessel that was wrecked at the mouth of the Siuslaw River on February 17, 1875....Old Town Florence is located on the Siuslaw riverfront. The Port of Siuslaw marina is to the east, and the Art Deco 1936 Siuslaw River Bridge is to the west. The boardwalk promenade was built along the marina to improve the area.....A sailboat or sailing boat is a boat propelled partly or entirely by sails.The generic term covers a variety of boats, larger than small vessels such as sailboards and smaller than sailing ships, but distinctions in the size are not strictly defined and what constitutes a sailing ship, sailboat, or a smaller vessel (such as a sailboard) varies by region and maritime culture
