“We are pleased to be representing this renowned German builder,” said Rob Maclachlan, President of SSY. Rob has experience with Bavaria as a dealer a decade ago, but stepped away up the franchise when the recession loomed.

South Shore Yachts“It’s been a few years since Ontario has had Bavaria sailing yachts representation,” says Len Baronit the Bavaria Brand Specialist for YSW, “bringing SSY into the fold makes sense as they are a solid, long standing company that is well respected in the region.” concluded Len. Baronit’s and Maclachlan’s friendship and business relationship go back some years to the days when Rob worked for C&C and Len was a west coast dealer.

South Shore Yachts 2South Shore Yachts is located in Virgil, not far from Niagara-on-the Lake where Rob grew up and later worked for C&C. Cody Montgomery is a partner in South Shore Yachts. Cody is in charge of service and the pair work as a team to provide their customers, including many longstanding C&C owners, with complete service.

As I shift our chartered canal boat into neutral, I’m soothed by the soundtrack of bird calls, the occasional plaintive horn of a distant train and the hum of our engine.

I reach for the VHF to radio the lockmaster in charge of Erie Canal’s Lock 32 dead ahead. Our boat spins gently in the current like a maple key in a mud puddle.

“This is Onondaga,” I say. “Headed westbound and requesting passage.”
