POTW: Yacht dog meets dock dog!

Siku and Murphy

Dec 15, 2020

Good morning CYOB

Ours is the ‘yacht dog’, his name is Siku (which means ice in Inuit we are told – as he has blue eyes) and the ‘dock dog’ is Murphy. The dogs are old friends!

Murphy’s parents own an island and we were coming to visit. They were previously sailors, now landlubbers, for which we forgive them for … lol. 

Lake Superior is our haunt, Thunder Bay. Our boat – Doldrums – is her name, a 47′ Bayliner Yacht.

The picture was taken this summer by Murphy’s mom, Bev Perigord.

Waiting for the ice to melt and spring to come…..

That brings us to you and the Photo of the Week feature. With time on your hands, what could be more fun than going through your boating photos from last season. We’d love to see them too – pets, kids, funny stuff, beauty shots, holidays aboard and Christmas lights? It’s all good for sharing.

Just send your photo to cyonboard@kerrwil.com and please add POTW in the subject line.

Since then we’ve repowered, installed Starlink, and retired from work. Now, with confidence in our engine and our connectivity and more time to sail, we were Superior-ready.
