OK, stop the presses. This photo just came in from Beacon Bay. Clearly those folks know how to get into POTW!! Again!
But you can too – just send us your photo from last summer, from next summer (?) or from anything to do with boats. Holiday festivities will get priority treatment.
Send your photos to cyonboard@kerrwil.com and put POTW in the header. We are standing by for yours!
This issue’s Photo of the Week comes from friend Katie Dudman who reports. “He’s playing with the prop on a 40 Hp Yamaha. In the background is a SeaRay hooked up to the water hose to get started for the season. He’s completing the pre-launch inspection.”
Friend Pat Festing-Smith sent this obviously pained message… Potw candidate. Can’t wait to get back South. Nanuk at Mobian Is, near PSV. Nanuk for sale at an incredible price.
I took this photo in July 2017 from our boat Ginger which was anchored and stern tied in Mouat Bay near Shearwater. This wolf was very curious about our stern line and actually gave it a couple of hard tugs!
We got this beauty from Don Snell of the Sea Spray Class in Alberta who proudly reminds us “the SeaSpray is an excellent one person catamaran with numerous advantages over other catamaran classes.
Welcome to Photo of the Week 2018. If you are not familiar with this wonderful feature (What???!!!) it’s an opportunity for you to share your fine camera work with the boating nation.
We have had Christmas tree photos in years past, but this topper says it all. Like the traditional star atop the tree, this windex guides us in right direction all year long.
Throw away the box, this is some fresh thinking
Seemingly part sailboat and part spaceship, the new Jeanneau Yachts 55 just busted through the boundaries of traditional yacht design. I couldn’t take my eyes off the bubble hardtop that met me at the dock and I stepped aboard with trepidation. A few hours later, I was planning how to spend my not-yet-won lottery winnings.

Over the past seven decades, Ontario’s marina industry has developed alongside some of Canada’s largest freshwater lakes. Boaters have been able to enjoy the beautiful scenery and create lasting memories on the water, with certain marinas dating back to the 1960s. As we reflect on this rich history, we can begin to see trends in how our footprint may have had an effect on the environment, in not-so-positive ways. 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.
