About Photo of the week!

The POTW rules are simple. It has to be your shot, taken in and around boats or from a boat. Or anything else boat related. Or any great photo of docks, ports, winches, engine parts, people, pets on boats, and of course sunsets. You shoot it, we’ll include it.

Send your photos to cyonboard@kerrwil.com with POTW in the subject and we’ll get them into the publication soon! Thanks in advance.
