Boating Atlantic

 

Feb 8, 2018

Published annually since 2006, Boating Atlantic is a guide to marinas, yacht clubs, and destinations for boaters cruising and visiting Canada’s Atlantic Provinces. With current event and attraction listings, the guide is a handy publication for all boaters to have aboard. Ten thousand copies are printed each year then distributed at the Halifax International Boat Show, the Moncton Boat Show, and at marinas and yachts clubs around Atlantic Canada.

The 2018 guide is published by Lily Media in partnership with the Atlantic Marine Trades Association (AMTA), which is the official voice of the recreational boating industry in Canada’s Maritime Provinces. AMTA is a not-for-profit organization governed by a volunteer board of directors working with its stakeholders to grow and enhance boating in the Atlantic Region of Canada and support its members in their endeavours.

AMTA is the owner of the Halifax International Boat Show and a partner in Discover Boating, a national initiative to attract more people to the recreational boating lifestyle.
