Mahone Marine’s 3rd annual raft -up party

Raft Up Party

July 25, 2017

WHEN? August 5th from 4:00 to 8:00 + WHERE? The North Side of Rous Island.   HOW? Bring your boat or find a boating friend   WHAT? Tie up together for a RAFT UP PARTY.  We will have a few moorings in place but the idea is that only one of us will tie to the mooring.  Then the next person ties up to the first person and the next boat to them and so on.  It’s a great way to meet new people and we all know that BOATERS ARE THE FRIENDLIEST PEOPLE ALIVE!  If you see someone you don’t know, introduce yourself!   LIVE MUSIC?  Yep!  We will have a barge set up and we have two groups coming to play for us starting at 4:00   FOOD?  You betcha!  It won’t be fancy – some burgers, dogs, water and soda    WHY? Because WE LOVE BOATING!  And let’s face it… everybody loves a good party.   WHAT IF IT’s RAINING?  Good question.  If it’s a drizzle we will carry on but if it’s actually raining we will have to cancel and try again next year.  If you’re not sure, check back here at this website.  I’ll update with any news.

The Best of Two Worlds

By Mathew Channer

Interior British Columbia might not be as famous for recreational boating as Canada’s Great Lakes, yet it is no less a world-class boat­ing destination. The mountains offer their own flavour of marine adventure with their series of long, deep ribbon lakes, and there is perhaps no area that embodies this more uniquely than the iconic Okanagan basin in southern B.C. One could be forgiven for assuming this valley was purpose-built for nautical fun, with a few delightful perks thrown in to make the area entirely irresistible (wine-tasting, anyone?).
