POTW: Aprons for a Good Cause

The Broad Reach Spring Thaw

Apr 11, 2024

The Photo of the Week was delivered right after the last spring blizzard when boaters from all over the GTA gathered for The Broad Reach Spring Thaw. Thanks to the East Coast theme the event evolved into a Kitchen Party –  shanties were sung, fiddles were deployed, chowder was spilled and everyone partied to raise funds for the Foundation. These highly themed participants were part of the Apron Fashion Contest. We’re not sure exactly who won.

These photos from the event were supplied Janis Rees, Kaleidoscope Photography. Janis is a serious photographer, but you needn’t be. All you need for Photo of the Week is a great shot of anything boating. A fine party like this one, kids on a boat or a peaceful morning at an anchorage. Just send them in to onboard@kerrwil.com and please indicate POTW in the subject line. Thanks in advance.

Just when you thought you might never see the Galley Guys again, there they were waving from the flying bridge of a Le Boat Horizon 3 gliding down the Trent Severn Waterway (TSW) in the sun. Glorious!

In the past the Galley Guys have travelled far and wide to great locations to explore the good life on a boat. However, this year we stayed in our own backyard for a real treat; cruising The Trent Severn Waterway.
