Canadian Yachting February 2019 – Boat Show Special Edition

February 2019 Cover

Dec 6, 2018

Here comes the February 2019 Canadian Yachting Magazine Boat Show Special edition; our biggest issue of the year!

In addition to all the great new boats you’re going to see at the boat shows across Canada this winter, we’ve assembled the Canadian Yachting 2019 Gear Guide, a preview of cool products and exciting accessories that you can look for at the shows.

Katherine Stone, of Canadian Yachting’s editorial team, took a trip to Annapolis this fall to see the latest in new sailboats of all kinds. Check out her “Sneak Peek from the 2018 United States Sailboat Show” story to see what’s in store at the boat shows this winter.

New boat reviews are always great reading and in this issue we have the fabulous new Cruisers Yachts Cantius 46, an elegant and fast new express cruiser as well as the innovative and very affordable NC 1095 from Jeanneau. For the sailing enthusiasts, we have a review on the Lagoon 46 Catamaran and a review on the exciting new Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 410.

Of course we realize that not everyone can afford a new yacht like the Cantius 46 or the Sun Odyssey 410. So, we have a detailed report on the growing world of opportunity in boat rental and shared ownership. Check out our story on this to see if a shared or rental situation can give you the yacht you want at the price you want to pay!

For many people, a smaller boat is more practical and for big yacht owners, their dinghy is often the boat that is used the most.

As a special addition to the February 2019 Canadian Yachting, you will get our 16- page pullout insert on Dinghies & Davits. All this and more is coming your way!

Safe Passage for Robert Buller

With the sudden death of Robert Buller in late October, we at Canadian Yachting lost a valued friend and contributor, while many in the marine industry on the West Coast and throughout North America lost a respected colleague. Robert’s wide circle of friends in boating knew him in many roles: a journalist with a strong interest in marine equipment and systems; a dedicated Canadian Power Squadron instructor with a specialty in navigation; owner of the classic 48’ Monk powerboat Nirvana; a keen restorer of wooden small craft; even as the guy who

Eight Bells: Ian Gow

Ian started his sailing life around 1972 when, as a young police officer, he was assigned to 55 Division and Patrick Lymburner was his training officer. Pat had just purchased a Thunderbird and wanted to get the mast up ASAP. They were working night shift and Ian offered to help. Then, of course, they had to take her for a sail.

New Boats: Beneteau Oceanis 34.1 – A Sleek, Good -Looking Delight To Sail

By Katherine Stone

There is nothing more that I enjoy than being with friends and messing about in boats. Messing about in brand-new boats on a champagne sailing day on Lake Ontario at the beginning of the summer doesn’t get any better. To have the new owner, Helmuth Strobel and Anchor Yachts dealer Pancho Jimenez aboard made it even more special, as they can also speak to what they truly enjoy about the boat. We keep our own boat in a harbour that has a long waiting list for boats over 35 feet, so this little gem would definitely fit the bill and feels like a much bigger boat. True to the spirit of the 7th generation Oceanis line, the 34.1 is built in Poland and replaces the 35.1. It is 1,000 lbs lighter, 14 cm narrower and has 29% more sail area.
