CY & BIC Bonus Read!
September is an amazing month for boating. For many Canadians it is a time for returning to routine after cramming a whole lot into the months of July and August. The slowed pace and cooler temperatures now mean a different kind of boating and combined with the beautiful fall colours; it can be a truly stellar experience on every boat trip. If you can snag a week or two away from commitments, September is your month for boating! Waterways are quieter and it's still not too cold. Bring a few extra blankeys, your “Oodie” and favourite people to snuggle with for overnight anchoring though. Then, take a moment and look up into the beautiful fall night-sky. This is what boating is all about.
Enjoy your Boating Equipment News for September 2023. This will be the final edition of BEN as we switch to “Onboard Reader’s Choice Monthly” in October. Reader’s Choice will be a recap of your favourite articles from the past month. Plus, keep an eye open for our even bigger upcoming announcement. Can you guess?
