            What about croping it only from bottom and right?

              I like the uncropped version. The boat gets lost and becomes unnoticeable when you crop it in my opinion.

                I agree with @MichaelaH - there seems to be some dead space at the bottom right but like the composition of the full character on the left.

                  I like the uncropped version, I think it gives a better sense of setting/depth and keeps the boat in more focus.
