Very noisy. Bad light? Monocrome style of 1890ies

Yes, yes, and yes. Deliberately so.

Nice idea and treatment.

That said, the bright straight line extending from the boat looks a bit detracting.  Is that ship wake?

Thanks, Akira.

The line is the boat's wake, but you are right - it's too bright - I'll darken it a little.

I like the expression and to my eyes (.. mind) it is dream like.

Dave, noise/grain is fine.
My eye wants to shift the entire image to the right. Agree the line darkened at the right a bit.
I see so much potential in this image, such a nice mood. The colors are great.

It reminds me a bit of the Pictoralists style. (If I am remembering the name correctly?) I like it. I like the sharp boat against the soft landscape. This image is different.
