“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.

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:
