Photo of the week: Another POTW Boater profile

Jan and Bill Stover

May 23, 2019

The photo of us in our dinghy was taken from the shores of Beausoleil Island.  We were on our way to Honeymoon Bay in the north of the Island and we were attending a Great Lakes Cruising Club Rendezvous for Georgian Bay boaters. Jan is “Admiral of the Fleet” and I am “Bilge Billy.”

The Photo of the Week (POTW) features shots of all kinds of things in and around boats – lots of sunsets and beautiful scenery, interesting boats, crazy signs, pets and increasingly great personal portraits. So much so that boater profiles have become a terrific feature.

By sending your info to us at CYOnBoard@kerrwil.com; we will get to meet some interesting Canadians who love their boats. Or send along anything else you see on or from your boat.

It’s about time you became the star of Photo of the Week.

Sailing into the Future at Antigua Sailing Week

By Mathew Channer

“Standby tack,” Canadian sailor Katy Campbell orders. The crew scrambles over the sheet lines and braces on the deck.

“Three, two, one, tack!”

I wait until the bow turns into the wind and the headsail snaps over, then crawl over the cabin top of Panacea X to the now windward side. The trim team smoothly sheets on the headsail and a competitor vessel shoots past our stern, feet away, as our Solana 45 beats eastward along Antigua’s south coast.
