VIBS Exhibitor Contest Awards 50’ Moorage Slip

VIBS Contest

John Ferris of New Westminster “took home” a 50’ marina slip from this year’s Vancouver International Boat Show. The one-year lease was his prize in a draw held by exhibitor Blue Heron Marina Estates, a new condominium and marina development on the main arm of the Fraser River in East Richmond.

Phase one of the development includes nine townhouse units with docks for owners, while phase two will see construction of the adjacent 38-slip Palmer Yachts Marina. Full yacht servicing, maintenance and repairs will be available, and the nearby Palmer Yachts shipyard will offer travel lift service and repairs.

Guelph couple wins Mariposa Cruises’ $15,000 on board wedding contest prize!

The wedding dreams of Guelph couple David Kellman and Crystal Roy came true this week when Mariposa Cruises announced they had won its Facebook contest prize, a $15,000 wedding on the water. The couple has chosen to be married this year aboard Mariposa Cruises’ beautiful Klancy II.
 
Crystal, originally from Brampton, met David almost five years ago by chance at Guelph bar, Trappers Alley. They hit it off right away and as the saying goes – the rest is history. The couple were engaged in November 2012, but thought they would only be able to afford a small wedding – until now.
 
“The day I found out, I was laughing and crying at the same time. I couldn’t hold my phone still to show David the announcement from Mariposa Cruises,” said Crystal Roy. “We are so happy and excited!”

Black Friday Sail

I’ve recently made the jump from monohull to catamaran and the need for speed. Having limited experience as crew on both a Hobie 16 and Hobie 18 I knew that it was impossible for me to control a boat like that by myself.

Pursuit S268 Sport CC

The Pursuit S 268 Sport centre console is a do-it-all kind of boat with a solid sense of style. Centre console designs have been developed for the southern blue water sport fishing enthusiasts (and this boat would raise fish with the best of them) but the Pursuit S 268 Sport centre console offers far more utility and enjoyment than just fishing.

Ron and Pat Reder started out in October 1984 across the road from where they are right now on the Bayfield River in Bayfield ON. The store front was about 10 x 20 and the rest of that side of the building was a stock room, wood finishing room, then behind that was more back stock and the lunchroom. Expanding every few years for the store front, then moving over to this new building five years ago, this year with Adam, Shelley, and Holly are carrying on the business.
