MD Marine Insurance

 

Mar 8, 2016

The boating community is growing with people looking to relax, unwind and enjoy some fun on the water. MD Marine Insurance has been there to meet this growth and in turn has grown as well. This growth is great news for clients as it means they are able to maintain the highest level of customer service and continue to meet client’s needs effectively and efficiently.

With the expansion of the MD brand from coast to coast, the Ontario office is feeling the squeeze and bursting at the seams at our current 390 Laclie St location in Orillia. MD Marine has called this home for many years along with our parent company McLean & Dickey Insurance, who has been an Orillia landmark for over 90 years. 2016 is bringing change in more ways than one and on March 7, 2016 McLean & Dickey and MD Marine will call 174 West Street South in Orillia home. 

MD Marine Insurance is a division of McLean & Dickey Ltd. With a highly skilled team of experts in our Orillia head office and our Calgary, Vancouver and Montreal regional offices. MD Marine Insurance serves the needs of Canadian recreational boaters from coast to coast. For more information, please visit our website www.mdmarine.ca or call us toll free 1-877-627-4633.

This is My Watermark. What’s Yours?

This is My Watermark. What’s Yours?

I was upside down with my head and chest submerged in the Toronto Harbour when it hit me. 

It was early spring and I was taking the final test for the accelerated Basic Cruising Standard test. It was cold on Lake Ontario, pouring rain, and our crew was struggling to finish. My job – the final job of the day – was to capture the buoy in a “man overboard” drill.  It was the would-be captain’s third or fourth attempt. I was wet, cold, exhausted, and ready to go home. This time, I vowed, I would reach the buoy no matter how far away it floated, no matter how wrong the angle or the speed. It ends now, I thought.

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.
