POTW – April 11, 2019: Not quite summer yet

Glenora Ferry

Apr 11, 2019

The skies are moody and weather remains a little fluky, but soon we’ll be into the all-too-brief boating summer. Shelley from Prince Edward County shared this shot of the marina by the dock of the Glenora ferry. The free(!) car carrier that connects the east end of the County to the eastern Ontario mainland.

Next issue as summer creeps closer it’s time for YOUR great photo! The POTW photo of the week can be anything photographed on or near your boat: people painting their hulls, marinas, boat shows, kids, pets, lunch, costumes, signs – you pick it and send your photos, with a bit of a back story, to CYonboard@Kerrwil.com and put POTW in the subject line. Happy shooting.

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.
