A Sweet Waypoint on Lake Ontario

A reclaimed industrial port on the north shore of Lake Ontario is a nexus for area sailors. Located about halfway between the densely populated Toronto

The Brooklin Scene: As the sailboats and their tenders arrive and the raft-ups begin, the protected anchorage at the southern end of Eggemoggin Reach takes on a delightful party atmosphere. The annual race — this is year 28 — is open to wooden boats 24 feet and longer (the feeder race from Castine is restricted to boats longer than 28 feet). This year’s racing takes place Saturday, August 3. For information about the Eggemoggin Reach Regatta and the many events surrounding it, visit www.erregatta.com.

Eggemoggin Reach

The annual pilgrimage begins in Castine, Maine, where the faithful gather on a summer’s Wednesday eve to partake of libations and reaffirm their belief in the majesty of wood.

Ron and Jo Dwelle’s Niagara 35 Annwfn and a couple of canoeists navigate a rock-strewn passage in northern Georgian Bay.

Uncharted but Enlivened

A cruise through Georgian Bay’s unsounded white areas keeps a couple on their toes, but loving it just the same.

Congratulations to Jim Nicolaus, winner of our Bahamas Photo Contest! Jim writes, "The clear water is always the first thing to come up when talking about the Bahamas. This shot is of our boat (39 Allied Mistress) anchored in Clarence Town Harbour, Long Island, Bahamas. I like how the clarity of the water reveals the sand, grass and boat shadow on the sea floor. I feel the light ripples around the dinghy and boat make the shot."
