Summer report
While there’s still some good weather left, let’s take a moment to celebrate this summer. Sunny, warm (mostly) and packed with the camaraderie that comes from spending two years under the dock.
All this has been very good for us at CY OnBoard as well as for our sister publication Sailing in Canada. Your adventures turn into stories, and we have received some brilliant contributions from our readers. This issue for example, we have received accounts of several “giving back” events that help boaters raise funds for the community. I am confident there have been many; the boating community is well aware of its good fortune and is eager to share.
