POTW Poland

Jan 26, 2023

Poland is in the news in a good way, so it seems like good timing that I Love Poland completed the RORC Transatlantic Race in Grenada with an elapsed time of 8 days 23 hrs 37mins 07 secs, taking Monohull Line Honours. And you gotta love that spinnaker, so they get to be Photo of the Week thanks to Trish Jenkins of the RORC Transatlantic Race.

It’s a whole new year and we need your Photo of the Week submissions to keep the flow flowing. It could be a boat, or people on a boat, or pets on a boat. Or anything else to do with boats and boating. Please send your great shots to cyonboard@kerrwil.com and put POTW in the subject line. Looking forward to receiving that amazing shot.

We met with Neptunus Managing Director Jan Willem De Jong this past fall to take the new Neptunus 650F out in Lake Ontario.

Clearing Pillsbury Sound, surrounded by voluptuous emerald mountains as the ferry sliced through royal blue waters, I was struck by the unspoiled ambiance of St. John, the island gliding past our starboard beam and the irresistible charm of a village called Cruz Bay visible from our quarter stern.
