Sailing and Getting Started The Rochester Democrat and Chronicle newspaper has a couple articles in Sunday's paper. The first is "A world of difference out on the water". A story written by D&C reporter Leo Roth about Keith Burhans. "Keith Burhans is Rochester's champion sailor, U.S. Paralymbian and all-around good guy, a man who takes equal pleasure in racing with fellow experts or teaching newbies the ropes." You can read the D&C article by clicking here. The second article on the page is titled "A desire, basic knowledge can propel you across the water". This is a story on getting started in sailing, listing the Rochester area sailing clubs. Click here to read the article in the D&C. For a listing of Rochester area sailing clubs, click here.

Provincial police say a marine unit nabbed the men in separate incidents. A 73-year-old from Picton, was issued a ticket for operating a boat underway with an open container of liquor. It carries a fine of $215. A 51-year-old man from Pittsford, N.Y., also was also charged with the same offence. A 53-year-old Napanee man also was ticketed for operating a small boat without a fire extinguisher. Police warn that they’re now on the prowl regularly on area waterways looking for safety violations. Cruising Lake Ontario The webmaster circumnavigated Lake Ontario in July.
