Toronto Boat Show Opening Weekend

TIBS 2020 opening weekend

Jan 23, 2020

Per tradition, Toronto was hit with a good amount of snow just in time for the opening weekend of the Toronto International Boat Show. Did that stop the crowds? Absolutely not, we welcomed a huge crowd opening weekend. Preview Day also saw very strong crowds with the second highest opening Friday in the past 21 years with attendance reaching over 3000 guests.

In addition to great crowds, the third annual Women’s Day took place on Sunday, January 19th and was an absolute success. With a crowd just shy of 100 women a full day was spent moving through seated and practical seminars – including trailering and docking.

From sea fleas to water ski’s it’s safe to say the shows may have it all and are looking forward to a full final weekend.

Come snow or sun we are looking forward to another full weekend of boating fun!

Just when you thought you might never see the Galley Guys again, there they were waving from the flying bridge of a Le Boat Horizon 3 gliding down the Trent Severn Waterway (TSW) in the sun. Glorious!

In the past the Galley Guys have travelled far and wide to great locations to explore the good life on a boat. However, this year we stayed in our own backyard for a real treat; cruising The Trent Severn Waterway.
