Maggie PracticingWe get a lot of shots in our Photo of the Week inbox but never one like this. The photo came from Jim and Maggie Smyth whose boat resides at the Thornbury Yacht Club. We have deemed it POTW of the Year. Congratulations to Jim and Maggie.

 

“Here are a few shots of my wife Maggie practicing her silks routine on our 1982 C&C in the North Channel for use in your publication.

“One shot is against the rocks in Covered Portage and the second is sunrise at West Mary Island.

Our boat name is Full Tilt.”
