POTW: April 12, 2018

POTW

 

Apr 12, 2018

Our Photo of the Week is actually a Video of the Week that came our way from Rick Shaddock of Squamish Yacht Club. What a venue.

Here’s what Rick writes:

I’ve been shooting the SOAR races in video and still for Inflow Express (Friday afternoon race to Squamish from Porteau Cove) and official race day (Saturday) since 2003. I edit about a ten-minute video set to music for the Saturday night on a large screen and under the stars. Example here. 15 years of video and still now.

Please send us yours!! The POTW rules are simple. It has to be your shot, taken in and around boats or from a boat. Or anything else boat-ish. Or any great photo of docks, ports, winches, engine parts, people, and pets on boats, of course. You shoot it, we’ll include it.

Send your photos to cyonboard@kerrwil.com with POTW in the subject and we’ll get them into the publication soon! Thanks in advance.

I reach for the VHF to radio the lockmaster in charge of Erie Canal’s Lock 32 dead ahead. Our boat spins gently in the current like a maple key in a mud puddle.

“This is Onondaga,” I say. “Headed westbound and requesting passage.”
