CYOB Inbox: More props for the Boat Nerd

BRNKL Office Exterior Front Door

Nov 19, 2020

Hi John,

There’s nothing that we like to do more than talk “nerd”, especially when it comes to boats! Your new feature “The Boat Nerd – the boater’s guide to the newfangled” sounds like an outstanding idea.

As a Canadian company with Made in Canada products, our focus is to bring exciting and practical innovation to the marine industry in Canada and beyond. Whether it be through our remote security on monitoring product, BRNKL; or how we’ve bridged the gap between the smart home and the smart boat with the introduction of our newest product the BRNKL Mate; or even, our WeatherCam that provides a real time live feed with overlaid weather data at marinas, our goal is to provide boat owners with the latest technology available to, as we like to say, “leave their boat without letting go.”

Something notable that was just announced was Soundings Trade Only’s “Top 10 Most Innovative Marine Companies for 2020”. We were thrilled (and very shocked) to be included in the Top 10. Feel free to read more about it here

If we can help you out in any way or provide you with any content for “The Boat Nerd”, we’d be more than happy to help.

All the best and we look forward to chatting soon.

Regards,

Sean Battistoni

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.
