Salon du Bateau

Montréal Boat Show, 2013

…online tickets made entry easy – no lineups…
…didn’t take François long to attract a cute little wench…
…mostly power yachts on display…
…some small sail craft…
…some large beauties…
…we found it interesting that there were no lineups to view the large power yachts but sizeable ones to view the sail boats – even on a weekday…
…photo op for our future anchor…
…got a great show deal on fenders, fender racks and fire extinguisher…
…and a tyvek (synthetic, waterproof) nautical chart book of R.E.D.’s future home to supplement the GPS…
…found a very cool self-furling mechanism for a future asymmetrical spinnaker…
…another great experience…
..returned home with a sack full of contacts and a head full of ideas…
…barely two months to go…
