POTW: August 8, 2019

POTW August 8 - Photo by Jessica Lee

 

Aug 8, 2019

This shot was taken last week by Jessica Lee, a freelance photography pro, Albacore racer and part time crew.  We were aboard Esprit de Corps III, one of Canada’s few internationally competing racers.  Our skipper, Maxime Grimard, who you can see overseeing the amateur media types hauling might appear a trifle amused, since he has taken the boat though some very heavy stuff in pursuit of offshore racing.

POTW - Aug 8 - Atlas

EDC III and Maxime are part of Atlas Ocean Racing, a Canadian sailing team. They were visiting Toronto to acclimatize some new crew and to host one of their key sponsors, Helly Hansen, which also sponsors Chester Race Week.

Here’s Atlas’ shot of the boat underway.

Make your shot the CYOB Photo of the Week

The POTW photo of the week can be anything photographed on or near your boat, 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.  Take the shots and send them now while the summer sun shines.
