The 16th annual Massive Marine Garage Sale April 13th

Massive Marine Garage Sale

Mar 28, 2019

Do you have whosits, whatsits, and “things that might be helpful later” taking over your boat? Does your basement look a bit too much like a chandlery? The Maritime Museum of British Columbia is hosting the 16th annual Massive Marine Garage Sale on Saturday, April 13, and it’s the perfect place to find new homes for some of your no-longer needed boat items.

Garage Sale FindsBCA has reserved eight tables at this event, and you have until March 19 to commit to a table ($35.00 each). If you would like to be part of the BCA table block, please contact VI Bosun Chris Stask by March 19 and let him know you’re interested. Tables booked after the deadline must be booked directly with the Maritime Museum and will cost $40.

More interested in adding to your collection of nuts and bolts? Visit the Garage Sale on Saturday, April 13 at Ogden Point Pier A in Victoria from 9am–1pm. Admission is $5 (12 and under free).  There are always innumerable treasures just waiting to find new boats!

Best of all, this event is for a good cause: all proceeds will support the Museum’s education programs.
