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.

Boaters have been able to enjoy the beautiful scenery and create lasting memories on the water, with certain marinas dating back to the 1960s. As we reflect on this rich history, we can begin to see trends in how our footprint may have had an effect on the environment, in not-so-positive ways. 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.
