This issue, to kick off 2019, we have an unofficial Photo of the week and this, the unofficial POTW. It came to us in a text from Roger in Windsor, but it’s hard to resist. Low quality and with no credited photographer, I think it speaks for itself.

BridgeThe official Photo of the Week submission comes from Ann Masson of Picton who sent along some winter (albeit mild winter) shots from Belleville. Nice shots but just a bit gloomy. When is spring?

MarinaAt CYOB we NEED your photos and we need a lot of them to sustain us over the off-season. So please shoot and send them in pronto. Just to review, the 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.

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.
