Canadian Yachting met up with Robb Butler of Grand Yachts at the Annapolis Boat Show on board the new Beneteau 41.1.

Here is what Robb had to say, “Upon viewing the new Beneteau 41.1 I was struck with the new ultra-sleek lines. The trademark hard chine stretches for the entire length of the hull creating a reduced heeling angle and optimizing the interior volume. The flush deck hatches add to the overall sleekness. With the 22 square foot swim platform in the down position the twin wheel cockpit becomes an enormous entertainment area.”

“Very noticeable is the new deck joint which does away with the traditional wood toe rail which always requires maintenance.

The full beam salon with a U-shaped can accommodate 6 to 8 guests.

With a choice of 2 or 3 cabins, 1 or 2 heads and two interior wood colours, the 41.1 offers a high level customization.

The 41.1 is another stunning addition to the Beneteau stable.”

Spotted! Canadian Boating in Antigua & Barbuda

By Mathew Channer

I wore my Canadian Boating cap everywhere I went in Antigua, for the sun, not for the shout-outs. But I sure received a lot of them.

Antigua Sailing Week is an international regatta that draws sailors of every level and spectators from all over the world. Yet I couldn’t walk across a room without being hailed by a Canadian who was as excited to see my cap as they were to see the racing. I met many who were on their 3rd, 4th and 5th visit.
