On Board Reference Doubles As Log Book

Boating Manager

 What’s the VHF channel to hail the fuel dock? When’s the last time the oil was changed? Will a friend know where to find the shackle key? Boaters will find a wealth of such information in Bernard Engraving’s Boating Manager series. 

Available in Power Boat Manager or Sailboat Manager formats, they make thoughtful and highly practical holiday gifts.

These onboard reference logs become more valuable over time as owners continually add their own data to them. They are invaluable to someone who may have to captain a boat during an emergency, when lending out a boat or to the next owner of the vessel.

Designed to lay flat, Boating Managers feature a 3-ring, loose leaf format with durable poly covers. Color-coded chapter tabs provide easy reference. Pages to record crucial information such as piloting, vessel documentation and data, inventory, medical history and maintenance logs are included. The Sailboat Manager also includes sections on sails, rigging, trimming, and cruising and pre-arrival anchoring and docking checklists.

Experienced and new boaters alike will appreciate the laminated quick reference cards. Now, vital information such as a pre-start checklist, sound signals and waypoint log, can be brought up on deck.

The Best of Two Worlds

By Mathew Channer

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?).
