Cruisers Cantius 54 Sneak Peek

Cruisers Cantius 54

June 19, 2016

This was our first look at the brand-new Cruisers Yachts Cantius 54 as the delivery crew carefully approached the locks at Buckhorn, Ontario.

The brand-new Cruisers Yachts Cantius 54 is heavily protected by fenders as the delivery crew guides it out of Lock 31 at Buckhorn, Ontario on their way down the Trent Severn Waterway to the lucky new owner who was waiting in the Thousand Islands. This is the latest in the Cantius line of express cruisers by Cruisers Yachts and it’s the first 54 to be delivered in Canada. The twin Volvo Penta IPS 950 engines delivered an impressive top speed and surprising acceleration, especially considering the rich inventory of standard equipment. The test boat had a hydraulic swim platform, four different refrigerator and freezer drawers in the spacious galley, a full beam master stateroom with en suite head, a forward guest stateroom room with a second head arrangement including a separate shower stall compartment and there was also a mid-cabin with twin berths.

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.
