Basically, what I want to do is join 4 tables together and return 1 row for each boat.

Table Layouts

[Boats] id, date, section, raft

[Photos] id, boatid, pthurl, purl

[River_Company] id, sort, company, company_short

[River_Section] id, section

Its very simple as far as structure, however, I've having the time of my life trying to get it to return only 1 row. No boat will ever be on the same day, the only thing that's messing this up is the photo table.

If you know a better way for it to return the record table for all the boats boats and only 1 photo from the photo table, please, please post it!!
