Trent Port Marina

May 24, 2017

You’re on your way east to the 1000 Islands or the Trent-Severn. By entering north of Prince Edward County at Presq’ile Bay, you get to cruise up the irresistible Murray Canal into the Bay of Quinte. That passage leaves you so mellow it’s time to moor for the night and Quinte West, now in its second year of operation is right there to welcome you.

The Trent Port Marina is a terrific new municipal marina located in Quinte West, Ontario, at the mouth f the Trent leading to the Trent-Severn canal system.

Over 370 fully equipped slips (floating docks – hooray) are available for both seasonal and transient boaters at very competitive rates. Boaters will be welcomed by Quinte West’s hospitality while having access to dining, entertainment, shopping and various tourist attractions for all ages and interests.

Enjoy free Trent Severn Canal lockage fees throughout 2017 courtesy Parks Canada in celebration of Canada’s 150th Anniversary of Confederation.

Nimbus 365 Coupe – A real long-stay cruising boat for exploring

By Andy Adams

There is no shortage of fun and exciting new boat designs hitting the market, but for the last few years these have been mainly outboard-powered day boats. 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:
