POTW: Ready almost steady go!

Racing Light Sabers

May 13, 2021

Our photo of the week comes from Europe where Ali ten Hove and Mariah Millen are warming up their 49er FX for July’s Olympics. We have already profiled the pair in our Mett the Olympians column, but when they sent this action shot, who can resist.

 

 

 

 

But just in case you need more, this time you get a POTW that came to us from Kcee Clarke of Toronto via FB. Another shot that’s pretty hard to resist for in a lockdown kind of way.

 

 

 

 

The next Photo of the Week is yours. As you launch or dream of boats, send us a photo for the collection. Simply send your shot to cyonboard@kerrwil.com and we will share it with one and all!

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.
