Kincardine Harbour on a Calm, Slightly Foggy Night.

Oct 12, 2023

This beautiful shot comes from David Bannister who resides in Kincardine. The nearly 150 year old lighthouse landmark is at top left.

This past summer was our first trip to the North Channel with Unsalted – a 1991 Nordic Tug 32 that we just acquired in December of last year, although we have made the trip more than a dozen times on our 35 foot C&C sailboat. We recently switched to the trawler.

“I am a photographer and painter among other things (my image is on the cover of PORTS for Lake Huron, etc.). I have given presentations to Power Squadron on cruising the North Channel starting this year and have begun instructing there as well on introductory boating.”

You too can be a famous photographer by sending your photos to or POTW mailbox.  Boating shots of any sort – kids, pets, signs, ports, sunsets etc. etc.  Just send your shots onboard@kerrwil.com and put POTW in the subject line please.  Looking forward to seeing yours!

Paving the Way to Cleaner Boating – How a Commitment to Reducing our Environmental Impact is Inspiring Cleaner Boating in Ontario

By Dave Rozycki

Over the past seven decades, Ontario’s marina industry has developed alongside some of Canada’s largest freshwater lakes. Boaters have been able to enjoy the beautiful scenery and create lasting memories on the water, with certain marinas dating back to the 1960s. As we reflect on this rich history, we can begin to see trends in how our footprint may have had an effect on the environment, in not-so-positive ways. However, by embracing innovative solutions and adopting sustainable practices, both marinas and boaters hold the key to preserving and enhancing the quality of our lakes and marine life for generations to come.
