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!

Bennington 22 MSB

By Andy Adams

If you’ve already had firsthand experience with a pontoon, you will easily understand the appeal of the Bennington 22 MSB. But if you haven’t, let’s start by reviewing a few of the reasons why pontoon boats have become top sellers in markets across North America.

Pontoon boats began in the early 1950s as basically four steel drums lashed to a frame. They were not unlike the log rafts of ancient cultures and not much more sophisticated at first.

The Best of Two Worlds

By Mathew Channer

Interior British Columbia might not be as famous for recreational boating as Canada’s Great Lakes, yet it is no less a world-class boat­ing destination. The mountains offer their own flavour of marine adventure with their series of long, deep ribbon lakes, and there is perhaps no area that embodies this more uniquely than the iconic Okanagan basin in southern B.C. One could be forgiven for assuming this valley was purpose-built for nautical fun, with a few delightful perks thrown in to make the area entirely irresistible (wine-tasting, anyone?).
