Boating Equipment News Digest by Canadian Yachting & Boating Industry Canada
What month is it? Oh ya, the one that begins to put winter behind us and spring on the radar. WOOHOO! Is anyone else feeling like you have come out of the fog of not only winter but the insanity that Covid-19 was? Also, how did Daylight Savings Time and the time change effect your Circadian Rhythm last week? While morning start-ups were a bit cranky for a few days, I personally love the idea of more end of day daylight! One theory I recently heard about DST is that the retail sector loves this because consumers tend to buy more during the daylight hours. I can buy into that. So with that, I will leave you with a few products to consider when you are shopping for boat stuff at 7:24pm.
Enjoy your Boating Equipment News for March 2023.

Contemporary pull-up cleats check all the boxes
