Jesper Rönngard, CEO of Navigare Yachting, announces that Fraser Yacht Sales of Vancouver, BC has joined as partner dealer, allowing the placement of new catamarans and sailing yachts into Navigare’s charter fleet in the BVIs, the Mediterranean, and Thailand.

Established in the mid-1990s, Fraser Yacht Sales has evolved into Vancouver’s premier yacht dealership for Canada’s west coast yachting community, with exclusive distribution of Jeanneau monohulls and Lagoon catamarans in British Columbia.

“Navigare’s success was built upon providing the best level of service and customer care in the charter industry,” explained Phillip Winter, Partner Manager for Navigare Yachting USA. “We owe it our clients to select the most customer-centric dealers in the Americas to support our growth. Our newest alliance with Fraser Yacht Sales honors this pledge.”

Fraser Yacht Sales founder and owner, Ian Fraser, commented: “More and more of our clients are considering buying their next yacht in a charter program. They wish to add more variety to their sailing holidays, and delegate maintenance to professionals. And let’s not overlook the upside of offsetting the cost of ownership through charter income! Navigare has earned a solid reputation as a charter operator, and offers very attractive programs: aggressive guaranteed returns, a flexible reciprocity program to sail anywhere in the world, and documented maintenance on all yachts!”

Fraser Yacht Sales and Navigare Yachting was represented at the British Columbia boat show on May 2-5, 2019, at Port Sidney Marina.

Some are day cruisers; some are centre console fishing boats or designed for tow sports. A new live-aboard cabin boat has become a rare item these days.

So when I heard that Pride Marine in Orillia, Ontario, had a Nimbus 365 Coupe in the water, I jumped at the chance to get out on it.

Tahiti—Updates from Paradise

By Zuzana Prochaska

I’ve been to Tahiti seven times—six on charter and once as crew for a couple of yachties. Over the 25 years that I’ve been visiting, it’s changed dramatically. Yet, inexplicably, it has also stayed the same.

Lounging on the flybridge of our Sunsail 454, I had time to think about this dichotomy as I toasted the nighttime skies of Bora Bora and specifically the Southern Cross, a constellation that never fails to hypnotize. As the Crosby, Stills & Nash (1982) tune reminds us:

…you understand now why you came this way.
