It’s A Full House of Boats

alt

Ontario’s premier boat show, the Port Credit In-Water Boat Show, is celebrating 21 years August 26-28, 2011. It will be staged once again, at the Port Credit Harbour Marina – The Boating Super Centre, Mississauga, ON.

The Port Credit In-Water Boat Show is the ONLY boat show that features both new AND used power and sailboats in-the-water and on-the-hard.

C.A.S. Power Marine Ltd, exhibiting at the show for the first time, will be showcasing three new power boats – the 2011 Formula 350 SS, 2011 Starcraft 2119 and the 2012 Starcraft 22CSX (I/O). On the sale side, C&L Boatworks will be exhibiting the CL14 and CL11 – small, trailerable sailboats that are designed and manufactured in the Fort Erie plant.

And that’s just two of the boat lines. Walk the docks at the Port Credit Harbour Marina and see new sailboats from Beneteau, Jeanneau, Hansa, J-Boats, Hunter, C&C, Delphia, and Catalina. On the power side, Sea Ray, Four Winns, Carver, and Cruisers Inc. will be pre-viewing new and used models. Yacht Brokerages from Port Credit Harbour Marina, Toronto Outer Harbour Marina, Oakville and Bronte will not only have boats in the water, but listings of other boats for sale.

But the Port Credit Boat Show isn’t just boats. On-the-hard will be land displays featuring marine equipment, insurance, finance, charters, sailing schools, boat associations, canvas makers and more. And search for those unexpected boating equipment treasures at our Consignment Tent sponsored by The Store, Mason’s Chandlery.

Join us for our ever popular seminar series, this year entitled – ‘Living the Dream’. Rob MacLeod of Informedboater.com will once again host a stellar group of speakers covering topics such as cruising down the Inter-Coastal Waterway and in the Caribbean. Meet yachting couples and singles who have lived the dream.

Special show features include the Raymarine Mobile Electronics Trailer fully loaded with all of Raymarine’s award-winning technologies including the A-Series products, C-Series and E-Series Multi-function displays, and Raymarine’s HD digital fishfinders, radars, autopilots, wireless remote technology.

Nimbus 365 Coupe – A real long-stay cruising boat for exploring

By Andy Adams

There is no shortage of fun and exciting new boat designs hitting the market, but for the last few years these have been mainly outboard-powered day boats.

So when I heard that Pride Marine in Orillia, Ontario, had a Nimbus 365 Coupe in the water, I jumped at the chance to get out on it.

Tahiti—Updates from Paradise

By Zuzana Prochaska

I’ve been to Tahiti seven times—six on charter and once as crew for a couple of yachties. Over the 25 years that I’ve been visiting, it’s changed dramatically. Yet, inexplicably, it has also stayed the same.

Lounging on the flybridge of our Sunsail 454, I had time to think about this dichotomy as I toasted the nighttime skies of Bora Bora and specifically the Southern Cross, a constellation that never fails to hypnotize. As the Crosby, Stills & Nash (1982) tune reminds us:
