BC marinas continue to serve

Apr 23, 2020

Oak Bay Marine Group: Oak Bay Marina, Pedder Bay Marina, North Saanich Marina and Ladysmith Marina Continue serving their boating clients.

Oak Bay Marina

Just like all of you, all of us here at Oak Bay Marine Group are learning to navigate the difficult times that we have been facing this year, we are also witnessing the importance of boating that has been tightly woven into the fabric of so many coastal communities. Families are taking to the water to explore and take advantage of the natural distancing that the water provides. Our Marinas are open for business and we are so pleased to be able to continue to facilitate safe recreation. It is a great year to refocus on connecting with immediate family and set sail on adventures close to home.

The Crew at Oak Bay Marina, Pedder Bay Marina, North Saanich Marina and Ladysmith Marina are hard at work maintaining the facilities, cleaning high touch-point areas and supporting our boating communities as best we can with reduced service hours while respecting physical distancing efforts. Service is always one of our key priorities especially as we adjust to this new normal, so please feel free to call us at our office lines, or radio us on 66A and we would be happy to offer assistance as best we can. Service is limited but our fuel docks are open and ready to help with new measures to protect our customers and crew.

For now, Guest Moorage, our nightly moorage program has been temporarily suspended and we are offering moorage for monthly or annual customers. As soon as it is safe to do so, we will be back to welcoming nightly guests at our facilities and are looking forward to the times ahead connecting with new boaters. Please follow our social media channels or give us a call to inquire about moorage if you are planning a trip, we will be happy to help you organize your time with us.

Enter Starcraft and its delightful SV 16 OB, an all-new-for-2025 family deck boat that elegantly balances comfort, amenities and affordability.

The Erie Canal – An Extraordinary Waterway

“This is Onondaga,” I say. “Headed westbound and requesting passage.”
