Look for the new PORTS Georgian Bay in early 2020

The Canadian Yachting team is hard at work updating the cruising guides that everyone loves. Aerial photographers have been dispatched, researchers are diligently bringing in fresh information and the printers are getting ready for the brand new editions. PORTS Georgian Bay will be ready for purchase in early 2020 followed closely by the brand new Rideau Canal and Ottawa River edition.

PORTS Rideau out in time for the 2020 season

As soon as those two are completed, we will be hard at work on other volumes of the collection. The Guides will continue in the format boaters tell us they love – spiral bound so they fold flat, convenient size and substantial stock. The Guides will be available in marinas and bookstores as well as online. We will share the details as soon as they are finalized so you can get your copy on board for next summer’s cruising.

Since 1984 PORTS Cruising Guides have been the cruising boater’s essential companion. Whether you’re cruising Lake Ontario and the Thousand Islands, the Trent-Severn Waterway, or Georgian Bay, The North Channel and Lake Huron you’ll find everything you need to know in PORTS – where to dock, what to do, where to eat, where to find fuel, where to shop, where to anchor and where to find the best deals on groceries and supplies. It’s like having your own private concierge, everywhere you go!

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?).
