Sneak Peek of Canadian Yachting’s 2016 Boat Show Issue!

Goslings Rum

Canadian Yachting magazine’s boat show issue is worth the wait.  Arriving on your doorstep and on newsstands just in time to kick off the winter boat show season,
this year’s magazine has enough information to make you wonder if you should stay put in your chair and finish reading or head out the door and witness some of the new dream boats in person.

Dream Boats reviewed include the Jeanneau 54, the Cruisers Cantius 60 and the Azimut 55S, all being showcased at both the Vancouver and Toronto International Boat Shows in January

Environmental Focus – with so much riding on the health of our waterways we decided to bring some relevant and timely focus to some of the issues facing our lakes and oceans.  But rather than just presenting the problems we have also introduced ways in which we as Canadians can become involved to help. 

Take a Personal Watercraft tour of the Ottawa River, explore mystical Lake Superior in a crewed sailboat, then venture over to Bermuda and learn the Dark ’n Stormy history of their tropical rum business.

As if that weren’t enough, the Galley Guys are gutsy enough to take us to Holland and Amsterdam and the Royal Vancouver Yacht Club is highlighted for both its rich history and its promising future.

Tahiti—Updates from Paradise

By Zuzana Prochaska

I’ve been to Tahiti seven times—six on charter and once as crew for a couple of yachties. Over the 25 years that I’ve been visiting, it’s changed dramatically. Yet, inexplicably, it has also stayed the same.

Lounging on the flybridge of our Sunsail 454, I had time to think about this dichotomy as I toasted the nighttime skies of Bora Bora and specifically the Southern Cross, a constellation that never fails to hypnotize. As the Crosby, Stills & Nash (1982) tune reminds us:

…you understand now why you came this way.
