POTW: Tony Castro Dreamboat

POTW Dreamboat

May 23, 2024

Here’s a stunning Photo of the Week from Tony Castro. We think of Tony as an almost-Canadian. He was CS Yachts’ designer for years and spent a lot of time in Brampton – many of you likely still enjoy his CS 30, CS34 and others. That’s the Canadian angle but Tony was born in Portugal and today he is based in Hamble near Southampton UK where is studio creates renowned designs including some very sexy superyachts.

This design, named Perennial, is planned for 2026 and if your new boat budget is €65,000,000 or so she could be yours. The boat headlined this month’s Spring newsletter. The second picture illustrates the ‘beach club’ easily accessed from the lower deck cabins.

Your Photo of the Week.  Well, we are not expecting a million-euro superyacht, but perhaps some pets on board, kids on water toys or a beautiful port. The pHoto of the Week can be anything you like as long as you take the shiot from or around your boat.  Just send the pics along to onboard@kerrwil.com and please put POTW in the subject line.

Spotted! Canadian Boating in Antigua & Barbuda

By Mathew Channer

I wore my Canadian Boating cap everywhere I went in Antigua, for the sun, not for the shout-outs. But I sure received a lot of them.

Antigua Sailing Week is an international regatta that draws sailors of every level and spectators from all over the world. Yet I couldn’t walk across a room without being hailed by a Canadian who was as excited to see my cap as they were to see the racing. I met many who were on their 3rd, 4th and 5th visit.
