Message From The Editor
Welcome to Fall
This issue of Onboard has too much in it to mention in these opening remarks. If you take some time to browse through you won't be short of interesting reading material. Of particular note is our third installment in the travel blog of Adamant 1. We find our sailors this time in Lake Michigan, after having launched from Midland Harbour, Georgian Bay in July, and on their way south through the Great Loop. This issue also marks not only the first day of Fall but also my last comments as editor of Onboard. I have thoroughly enjoyed not only bringing you news from the boating lifestyle twice monthly but also hearing your feedback on our stories and especially learning of some of your own boating experiences. Thanks for reading and safe boating!
