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.

The formation of Glacial Lake Iroquois, at the end of the last ice age, was to have a lasting effect on the boating activity on Lake Ontario. Many years ago, as the lake eroded, it left geological records through alluvial deposits from the Bluffs, which then settled westward to form the Toronto Islands. More recently, the erosion rate picked up quickly in the 1940s when cottages were being built along the bluffs to capitalize on the breathtaking, enticing waterfront view of this “geological wonder” and a unique feature in North America. The result of this consistent and dramatic erosion in the Scarborough Bluffs, has created an impressive portion aptly named Cathedral Bluffs.  The Bluffs were first named by Elizabeth Simcoe, wife of John Graves Simcoe, the first lieutenant governor of Upper Canada, in 1793. She wrote in her diary, “The [eastern] shore is extremely bold, and has the appearance of chalk cliffs, but I believe they are only white sand. They appeared so well that we talked of building a summer residence there and calling it Scarborough.” It runs for 15 kilometres from the Eastern Beaches to West Hill, and soars up to 90 metres at its highest point. A stylized version of The Bluffs appeared prominently on the flag of the former City of Scarborough before it was amalgamated into the City of Toronto. Nestled in the middle and protected on all sides you will find one of the friendliest places on Lake Ontario, Highland Yacht Club.
