The 2013 Moncton Boat Show Cruises Out a Winner!

2013 Moncton Boat Show

The owners of the Moncton Boat Show, Master Promotions Ltd. are pleased to announce that the 2013 edition of New Brunswick’s largest boat show was a resounding success!  Saturday attendance was off the charts.

Attendance was up over 12% and broke the 10,000 mark during the course of the three day event. Saturday attendance was outstanding and the atmosphere almost electric in the Moncton Coliseum.

Exhibitors reported brisk sales with many solid leads to follow up on before the 2013 boating season officially begins. Many exhibitors are actively rebooking their space for the next event.

This was the largest selection of boats ever seen before at the Moncton event and visitors were amazed by the range of boats, motors, docks and other boating related equipment available.

Exhibitors reported strong interest in pontoon boats, bowriders and mid to large size cruisers. Aluminum boats were still a strong contender in the Atlantic Canadian Market and if this show was any indication, it is going to be a busy year on the river in New Brunswick.

Congratulations to the winner of the Action Car & Truck Accessories Door prize which was a $500.00 Gift Card. That went to Ken Reynolds.

We are now actively planning for our 2014 edition of the Moncton Boat Show and will be releasing dates in the near future.

So when I heard that Pride Marine in Orillia, Ontario, had a Nimbus 365 Coupe in the water, I jumped at the chance to get out on it.

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.
