That's really not a bad name at all - Distant Ports Calling...I like that. The shot is terrific, it would have walked away with the "Blue" challenge I think, and gets high marks here as well. Well done.
Wonderful crisp image with good saturated color. I think you should have tried to isolate the sailboats more as they get lost in the background building. Either a different point of view to isolate them, or zoom in for a close up.
Since the band name begins with "distant", a wider angle of view would help this (depending on what is outside of the frame i guess). I'd like to see the dock much smaller in the background, to go with your title.
