Join the Vancouver International Boat Show on Sunday, January 21, 2018 for Women’s Day. 

The packed program includes a full day of boating seminars and guest speakers designed to educate and inspire. Topics to choose from range from basic electrical, emergency procedures, docking, anchoring, Howe Sound weather, electronics and apps, boat insurance, and tips and tricks for the galley and crew. The presentations, for both power and sail, will help beginners get started and offer seasoned boaters a fun refresher.

And a ticket to enjoy the boat show on another day since this is a full day event and you won’t have much time to visit the boat show.
