Lake Ontario Offshore Racing (LOOR) announces that The Humberview Group of Automotive Dealerships, known as DriveHG.ca, have extended their commitment through 2022 as the title sponsor for LOOR. The focus of this partnership will continue to be on the Susan Hood Trophy Race and the Lake Ontario 300/600 Challenges, but now has been extended to include the Lake Ontario Short Handed Race (LOSHR) series. 

“Over the past six years DriveHG’s enthusiasm has resulted in a higher level of excitement on the race course and during onshore events and activities,” comments Monica Doedens, Chair of Lake Ontario Offshore Racing.

The Humberview Group owns and operates 21 stores in Ontario with over 5,000 vehicles and 1500 team members representing virtually all automotive brands. From the Dorothy Ley Hospice Race, to Bike Sponsorships, Ski Sponsorships, and many more philanthropic endeavours, the Humberview Group is passionate about enlivening its community. 

Key to the extended arrangement is Andrew Lennox, currently General Manager for Drive HG’s newest acquisition Mercedes-Benz Brampton and a member of the Port Credit Yacht Club since 2004. Racing was in his blood at an early age, spurred on by his father Skip Lennox, a member of the Canadian Olympic team in 1964. Andrew has raced Opti’s as a kid, Lasers, and various J boats in the past, and is currently preparing a J/105 for this season’s events. He and his wife Jennifer spend much of their time cruising Lake Ontario in their pride and joy, Serendipity II, a Niagara 42.

Pontoon boats began in the early 1950s as basically four steel drums lashed to a frame. They were not unlike the log rafts of ancient cultures and not much more sophisticated at first.

The Best of Two Worlds

By Mathew Channer

Interior British Columbia might not be as famous for recreational boating as Canada’s Great Lakes, yet it is no less a world-class boat­ing destination. The mountains offer their own flavour of marine adventure with their series of long, deep ribbon lakes, and there is perhaps no area that embodies this more uniquely than the iconic Okanagan basin in southern B.C. One could be forgiven for assuming this valley was purpose-built for nautical fun, with a few delightful perks thrown in to make the area entirely irresistible (wine-tasting, anyone?).
