CORK #twoweeksonwolfeisland

If you don’t know about CORK, you’re probably not a sailor. CORK is, essentially, a pretty-much never-ending sailing regatta taking place in Kingston harbour all summer.

I’m not joking – there is pretty much always some CORK event going on. It’s incredible.

And it’s incredibly pretty. Those sails. All those sails …

Of course there are the funky ones, like the 29ers:

We saw a bunch of these heading out all in a row from Portsmouth Olympic Harbour and it was breathtaking.

and there are ones with bright spinnakers:

Spinnaker sails are distinct, unique, and colourful.

but there’s also something very cool about a whole bunch of white sails in the distance. That’s what I saw yesterday from the ferry. It was beautiful, however, I only had my cell phone, so the photo doesn’t show the sails like I hoped it would. Having said that, I think it’s a pretty awesome picture of the harbour, and if you squint, all the white specks against the dark land are sails. All of them. There were lots. It was pretty amazing:

I can see the white dots out there – hope you can too!

So, yeah, another cool thing about being on Wolfe Island in the summer is you get a free, front-row seat for CORK pretty much any day you like.
