Canadian Yachting Magazine at the 2014 Toronto International Boat Show

CY at TIBS 2014

Good crowds and an upbeat attitude characterized the first few days of the 2014 Toronto International Boat Show and the Canadian Yachting magazine booth has been a busy place!

Dealers say that serious buyers were out and on opening day, the parking lots were close to full just two hours after opening. Crowds were steady all day.

Again, Canadian Yachting magazine set up our “CYNN” boat show news network video studio and we interviewed several key industry people; Ron Huibers, President of Volvo Penta Americas, Maryline O’Shea, head of marketing for Beneteau in North America, Bentley Collins, VP Marketing and Sales at Sabre and Back Cove Yachts and others.

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