POTW: Never mind autumn, let’s go

POTW

Oct 8, 2020

This Photo of the Week came from our own CY Team member Sarah C who, like many of us, is trying to coax the last bit of enjoyment out of a seriously disrupted season. “Full winter gear boating this past weekend!” I am sure many of you are taking toques to the boat and doing the same – it’s going to be a long winter.

Please dig into your phones and cameras and send along your boating summer. Did you wear masks? Boat with huge social distances? Was it fun anyhow? Did you race; find a welcome cruising spot, bubble? All shots are perfect for the Photo of the Week so send them along to CYonboard@kerrwil.com and we will build a POTW library to work though in the landlocked, possibly locked down, months ahead.

…you understand now why you came this way.
