This year at the Boat Shows you will find a nice surprise. In addition to being able to demo some of our Online Courses you will be able to sign up for the Self Study VHF Radio courses for $100. This course normally is $125. To get the special price you will need to purchase it at a Boat Show Booth.

Many of our Online Courses will be getting a face lift over the winter months and will have additional interactive content to enhance learning objectives. Many Squadrons are developing innovative ways of giving students multiple ways of taking courses these days. Be sure to look at the details of how each course is being offered. This will range from a pure Self Study mode that you can do in your own time, it might have an online tutor that you can ask question, you may find your self in a weekly online or face to face classroom to answer questions and ensure you know the content, or some other combination. The great advantage that CPS-ECP brings to the marketplace is our people, in our Squadrons, which span this vast country. Our people are our greatest resource and are finding new ways to support students as they learn to enjoy boating in a safe way.

Centre console designs have been developed for the southern blue water sport fishing enthusiasts (and this boat would raise fish with the best of them) but the Pursuit S 268 Sport centre console offers far more utility and enjoyment than just fishing.

Ron and Pat Reder started out in October 1984 across the road from where they are right now on the Bayfield River in Bayfield ON. The store front was about 10 x 20 and the rest of that side of the building was a stock room, wood finishing room, then behind that was more back stock and the lunchroom. Expanding every few years for the store front, then moving over to this new building five years ago, this year with Adam, Shelley, and Holly are carrying on the business.
