Using the projector kindly provided by Marg Buhlman once again, Marc Bennett starts Uncle Al's 3-hour background slide show of our 2006 in Wayfarers as Brian McLennan (l) and Andrew Haill supervise.

As the sailor who best embodied the Wayfarer Spirit in 2006, Ottawa's Lori Beehler happily accepts the Red Herring Award  from Trophy Secretary and MC, Alastair Ryder-Turner.
...

Andrew Haill, the 2006 winner of the Ted Davis Memorial Trophy, gets a handshake from George Blanchard. Andrew's log of a cruise on Lake Superior: Victoria Island Expedition, was voted our best log of 2006.
...

CWA Rookie of the Year: Leo Van Kampen of the Conestoga SC
...

The Most Improved Wayfarer racers of 2006 were Carol and Dave Hansman of North Bay.
...

To no one's surprise, Marc Bennett and Uncle Al (with help from Michigander, Mallory Price) retained their title to the Storer Trophy, having gained the best aggregate score over our four major regattas in 2006.


Unfortunately, Uncle Al failed to get a picture of Trudy Davis giving her official blessing to our having changed the name of the George Smith Trophy, the highest honour the CWA can bestow, to the Don Davis Memorial Trophy. The late Don Davis (W460) was himself one of the earliest winners of this trophy which is awarded from time to time to Canadian Wayfarers who have made exceptional contributions to our Class over the years. Alas, this year's winner, Geoff Edwards, was unable to attend and missed his biggest moment of Wayfarer glory.
I did however, manage to find this lovely 1997 shot of Don and Trudy, taken in Killarney at the start of our 1997 North Channel cruise.
