Apr 11, 2024 The Photo of the Week was delivered right after the last spring blizzard when boaters from all over the GTA gathered for The Broad Reach Spring Thaw. Thanks to the East Coast theme the event evolved into a Kitchen Party – shanties were sung, fiddles were deployed, chowder was spilled and everyone…
Our Photo of the Week is actually a Video of the Week that came our way from Rick Shaddock of Squamish Yacht Club. What a venue.

We have received some fine pictures this week but cannot resist this montage of boating fails. Please don’t try any of this on your boat.
Throw away the box, this is some fresh thinking
Seemingly part sailboat and part spaceship, the new Jeanneau Yachts 55 just busted through the boundaries of traditional yacht design.

Over the past seven decades, Ontario’s marina industry has developed alongside some of Canada’s largest freshwater lakes. Boaters have been able to enjoy the beautiful scenery and create lasting memories on the water, with certain marinas dating back to the 1960s. As we reflect on this rich history, we can begin to see trends in how our footprint may have had an effect on the environment, in not-so-positive ways. However, by embracing innovative solutions and adopting sustainable practices, both marinas and boaters hold the key to preserving and enhancing the quality of our lakes and marine life for generations to come.
