June 19th Cover

May 9, 2019

The June 2019 issue of Canadian Yachting magazine is focused on the summer and some of the ways you can create more boating memories with family and friends.

Canadian Yachting readers are very fortunate to share in this great lifestyle and the June issue is a reminder that boating doesn’t have to mean owning a big yacht. In this June 2019 issue, you will find a number of more practical and more accessible boating stories.

Our boat reviews include the Yamaha WaveRunner FX SVHO three-seater personal watercraft, a family-focused Four Winns 180 HD and for the fisherman and outdoor enthusiasts in the group, a Wellcraft 242 F; three different boats each of which can deliver an excellent boating experience at a reasonable price.

Also in this issue we feature a wonderful and accessible destination, Port Severn on the amazing Trent Severn Waterway. Then there is something a little more aspirational; a waterfront look at the city of Chicago. Also, the eccentric Galley Guys are back and on the Rideau Canal system visiting the Scheuermann Winery.

As you begin your 2019 boating season, check out the practical, hands-on information about being a Good Samaritan on the water, join us for a look at Kingston Anchors and consider our information about marine fuel and the perils of using ordinary gasoline containing ethanol. It’s all in another fine issue of Canadian Yachting.

Pontoon boats began in the early 1950s as basically four steel drums lashed to a frame. They were not unlike the log rafts of ancient cultures and not much more sophisticated at first.

The Best of Two Worlds

By Mathew Channer

Interior British Columbia might not be as famous for recreational boating as Canada’s Great Lakes, yet it is no less a world-class boat­ing destination. The mountains offer their own flavour of marine adventure with their series of long, deep ribbon lakes, and there is perhaps no area that embodies this more uniquely than the iconic Okanagan basin in southern B.C. One could be forgiven for assuming this valley was purpose-built for nautical fun, with a few delightful perks thrown in to make the area entirely irresistible (wine-tasting, anyone?).
