Message From The Editor
Surprise!
Like most Canadians, we are obsessed with talking (and writing) about the weather. Like all boaters, we keep an eye on the sky and dream of sunny warmth and our appreciation of the sunny boating season that is always just over the horizon.

But in February, our collective it’s-almost-spring trance was broken by some unexpected nasty weather. It got announced when Los Angeles got snow on its Hollywood sign in a cold blast that hadn’t been experience in decades. That somehow slunk up the coast and bombed BC’s Lower Mainland.
