    The 2024 Photo competition is currently running. The entries so far can be seen in  the Flickr album    PEYC 2024 Photo Competition . The guidelines are very loose. Pictures can be of a boat; taken from a boat or generally feature boat and water.  Give your pictures a title (i.e. not IMG123),  email them as attachments - not as embedded images, they must be your own work and you must be a member.
