If you’ve already had firsthand experience with a pontoon, you will easily understand the appeal of the Bennington 22 MSB. But if you haven’t, let’s start by reviewing a few of the reasons why pontoon boats have become top sellers in markets across North America.
Pontoon boats began in the early 1950s as basically four steel drums lashed to a frame. They were not unlike the log rafts of ancient cultures and not much more sophisticated at first.
Interior British Columbia might not be as famous for recreational boating as Canada’s Great Lakes, yet it is no less a world-class boating destination. The mountains offer their own flavour of marine adventure with their series of long, deep ribbon lakes, and there is perhaps no area that embodies this more uniquely than the iconic Okanagan basin in southern B.C. One could be forgiven for assuming this valley was purpose-built for nautical fun, with a few delightful perks thrown in to make the area entirely irresistible (wine-tasting, anyone?).
By Kris Olson, Newport Yacht Club In the first article of this two-part series , we explored the benefits of building a volunteer program at today’s yacht clubs, focusing on Newport Yacht Club in Stoney Creek, Ontario. Newport has been a non-profit, volunteer-run, power and sail club since 2012 and has blossomed into a successful, vibrant organization with a core of dedicated members who assist in all operations of the club.You don’t have to be a fanatic but it might help if you plan to sail an open catamaran in the legendary Race to Alaska (R2AK)! Jeff Williams from Orillia ON and his crew Mike Van Joy (the boat is named Snowball; the crew is known on FB as The Snowflakes) are racing to Alaska 2026, beginning June 14th, starting in Port Townsend, WA and finishing in Ketchikan, AK. Where it gets shaky is that this is all happening aboard this 20-foot Tornado catamaran.
If you are proud of your boat and/or you don’t want to damage it, you are going to want to have fenders on board to protect it. We see lots of errors when it comes to how many, how to use them. In this video, Sean discusses:
Ewincher announces the commercial launch of a new range of electric motors designed for furling boom systems, combining high performance, advanced sail-handling features and a more accessible positioning for the market.
Furling boom systems are gaining momentum among sailing yacht owners looking for easier mainsail handling without compromising sailing performance. Unlike in-mast furling, boom furling allows the use of a fully battened mainsail, helping preserve sail shape, efficiency and the aesthetics of the rig.
