Putting on a bit of speed there Mary, what better way to complete the afternoon than a spirited run home.
Mary MacADNski: That is exactly it!

Does a charitable event offer free rides?
Mary MacADNski: It's a poker run where you get a card at several harbours till you have a five card poker hand. Then everyone ties up their boats in one large area and opens up their coolers and lights the barbeques.
Great action shot Mary.... this one will rank at the top of the heap todaysmile i just love the ocean fishing boats....petersmile
Mary MacADNski: This is a wonderful event - in aid of the rink.
A speedy Boat Friday photo... looks like fun Mary.
Mary MacADNski: It was but was a cooler day than other years.
I feel like I need to jump overboard to avoid the collision! Fun shot Mary!
Mary MacADNski: No need, you just let them pass.
Great shot, Mary! Is this a telephoto shot from the dock, or are you on another boat?
Mary MacADNski: I'm on another boat.

The lad looks a bit cold Mary.
Mary MacADNski: I'd say they were. The day was supposed to be sunny but that never materialized. The kids played in the water all afternoon and it would have been a bit cool coming in that evening.
this is right on Boat Friday
Mary MacADNski: Helped with the heat this Friday. The shot is from a cloudy day that was supposed to be sunny.

Great action boat Friday Mary, it sounds a fun event smile
Mary MacADNski: It is, really!
This is a nice one Mary. Very well captured.
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Frances.
Haha, this looks as if it is coming right at you, Mary. Did you have to jump out of the way at the last minute?
Mary MacADNski: Na, they passed if I remember correctly.
A grand shot Mary. A bit too close for comfort perhaps
Mary MacADNski: No, there was no problem. They may have passed us.
Great POV Mary, that bow wave looks really great.
Mary MacADNski: I got a few shots, some with several boats behind. We were in the lead.
That's kicking up quite a wave!
Mary MacADNski: Getting close. We were in the lead.

Kids normally love such 'chases', but those 2 on top seem unconcerned. Nice shot of Ryan and David's bow wave.
Mary MacADNski: Everyone was tired and it turned out to be a cloudy, fairly cool day rather than the sunny day forecasted.
i like the waves of the water kicked up by the bow. really gives a menacing look to this boat. nice action shot
Mary MacADNski: It was fun being the lead boat. Wish there had been sun that day.
