For our last Photo of the Week in 2017, I have picked some nice shots we received – one from the east coast and a couple from the west. The notes that come with them sum it up the whole POTW idea beautifully.

Thanks to everyone who sent along shots in 2017.

Send your photos to cyonboard@kerrwil.com with POTW in the subject and we’ll get them into the publication in 2018! Thanks in advance.

After securing my sailboat’s berth at the local dock for the season, at took a ride with my cousin in his power boat and snapped this great shot. CANSO Nova Scotia (most north eastern point of mainland in North America)

Hi from Comox Vancouver Island.

I have a Hunter 31 and am constantly taking high quality pics of boats from mine, so have a lot to choose from!

To start here is one I took from my boat in the marina yesterday, Oct 25.

Comox Valley Marina.

This one (below) was taken off Tree Island on the north end of Denman Island, Vancouver Island.

Taken in September this year by me.

Cheers

Glenn Naylor,

Bennington 22 MSB

By Andy Adams

If you’ve already had firsthand experience with a pontoon, you will easily understand the appeal of the Bennington 22 MSB. But if you haven’t, let’s start by reviewing a few of the reasons why pontoon boats have become top sellers in markets across North America.

One could be forgiven for assuming this valley was purpose-built for nautical fun, with a few delightful perks thrown in to make the area entirely irresistible (wine-tasting, anyone?).
