POTW: Hooray – Family group back on board!!

Sarah and Chris

May 28, 2020

It’s a COVID moment we will likely all remember. Our photo of the week of Sarah and Chris was taken just a few days ago when they finally got their Rinker launched. You can see the joy these boaters.

Some boats are in the water, more will be soon. For most of us that family group are the only folks allowed on board but that’s just fine. It’s great to get out of the dungeon and out on the water.

Take pictures when you’re out there. With this huge pause, we are really short of great shots for Photo of the Week so send yours – COVID or otherwise – to cyonboard@kerrwil.com and we will see you in June’s POTW. Hooray!

…you understand now why you came this way.
