Welcome to the February 2022 issue of Canadian Yachting magazine and the start of an exciting new year! Boating has enjoyed an unprecedented boom in popularity in the last two years and manufacturers are scrambling to meet the demand as they develop new boats to address the latest market trends.
At this year’s Vancouver Boat Show, many boaters had the same story – water is getting harder to find and that is a major concern when planning their trip. Not knowing if the water source at some strange dock was safe to drink was also an issue.
On Monday 9-11, after watching in shock, FB blogging the aftermath of Irma through the first weekend, and locating the entire staff of our Charter Management Company in Nanny Cay, I decided to get off my ass, stop looking at the horror and try and help these poor people.
What a nice surprise. When we talk boat tech lately, it has typically meant foiling or electric motors and batteries. This week’s issue made me realize there’s a LOT more than that going on.
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. I couldn’t take my eyes off the bubble hardtop that met me at the dock and I stepped aboard with trepidation. A few hours later, I was planning how to spend my not-yet-won lottery winnings.

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.
