Sneak Peak: Canadian Yachting October 2019 Issue

CY October 2019 Cover

Sept 26, 2019

Over this past summer, we have taken fresh new approach to the editorial in the magazine. It’s our hope that you will like the increased content, wider range of topics and the new contributing writers and photographers that we have added.

In this issue, Amy Breaux makes her debut with her comprehensive destination article on the Kingston, Ontario area.

Of course, our favorite writers are also back starting with Rob McLeod, the “Informed Boater” who has developed a special supplement on Chartering. We’re confident that from novice to expert, our readers will all find tips and tricks of value and of interest.

The very popular yacht club and marina profile series by Katherine Stone continues with the Alexandra Yacht Club in this issue.

We are adding more product information and technical editorial. In this issue, we cover compass maintenance, something that is often overlooked. When was the last time you had your compass serviced?

And, we continue the always popular new boat reviews with a sailboat review on the J99 and powerboat reviews on the Pursuit 235 DC Yamaha power and the newest design from Cruisers Yachts, their 38 GLS with triple Mercury V8 outboards.

We hope you like these latest changes to Canadian Yachting magazine and that the summer of 2019 has given you a full season of wonderful boating memories.

Look for it in your mailbox!

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?).
