POTW: Elbows Up – a US Surprise from Ogdensburg NY via Brockville

Elbows Up

July 10, 2025

Matt Wren, the Mayor of Brockville ON, writes (via FB):

“The Elbows Up for Canada event in Ogdensburg NY reportedly drew a couple hundred people today. While the flotilla aspect was quite small, it was very kind of some of the participants to make their way up river and show support. Some of my family and I greeted them on the water.

Our cross border relationships go deep and they will certainly prevail through current tensions.

“Today’s gesture was kind and appreciated. “

Ranger Tugs have been around since 1958 and they have developed a great formula: one boat, one price. Almost everything is included, and there is literally a fan club of owners who share stories, information and who set up events and rendezvous with other Ranger Tugs owners. www.Tugnuts.com is a community hub for owners of Ranger Tugs, Cutwater Boats and Solara Boats, all made by Fluid Motion!

Sailing into the Future at Antigua Sailing Week

By Mathew Channer

“Standby tack,” Canadian sailor Katy Campbell orders. The crew scrambles over the sheet lines and braces on the deck.

“Three, two, one, tack!”

I wait until the bow turns into the wind and the headsail snaps over, then crawl over the cabin top of Panacea X to the now windward side. The trim team smoothly sheets on the headsail and a competitor vessel shoots past our stern, feet away, as our Solana 45 beats eastward along Antigua’s south coast.
