Many hands make light work and many strokes make fast travel. On the original Manitoulin Brewing Company beer run from Little Current to Killarney, pictured here, the paddlers donned their Algonquin dinner jackets over PFDs in the chilly weather. | Photo: David Jackson

Modern day voyageur Mike Ranta [right] helped paddle the first batch of Killarney Cream Ale by Manitoulin Brewing Company from Little Current to the small community of Killarney, on Georgian Bay. This delivery inspired the Current To Killarney race.   | Photo: David Jackson
