POTW: A pot of gold in Gananoque

Gananoque Rainbow

Sept 24, 2020

Graham and Diane Segger spent 18 days sailing from Toronto’s Mimico Cruising Club to the Thousand Islands this August. They spent 15 days at anchor and three evenings in harbour, one of which was August 18 when they sheltered from some unsettled weather in Gananoque Municipal Marina. Graham created this Photo of the Week panorama rainbow shot with his iPhone X from the stern of their Catalina 400, Soulstice after the system blew through.

There was actually a second double rainbow above the principal one but it did not come out as clearly in the photo.

Time for you to send in your photos. If it’s boat related, we want it. Rainbows, kids, lighthouses, funny signs or boat names, people on board. Send your shots to cyonboard@kerrwil.com and please put POTW in the subject line, like Graham Segger did!! Thanks, Graham.

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.
