55th annual Vancouver International Boat Show: we were there.
Western Canada’s largest boat show, the annual Vancouver International Boat Show, held its 55th edition from January 18 to the 22, 2017. Candock was there to support its distributor, Candock BC, and to promote its latest innovative products. The 55th annual Vancouver International Boat Show featured the newest and most innovative boats, accessories, amenities, and included entertaining guest appearances. This year’s show highlighted a vast array of emerging products and brought together educational speakers and guests. From Bravo’s hit television show Below Deck, Helmsman and Captain Harold Lee Rosbach, who oversees command of a 154’ superyacht, to Kelowna’s Formula 1 driver Mike McLellan and the NMEA 2000® ConnectFest, this year’s show presented many entertaining and educational attractions. Highlights included the return of the Hands-On Skills Training (HOST) clinics at the Granville Island floating show, with sessions designed for those who wanted to learn fundamental close quarters boat handling skills. For a real hands-on experience that puts you at the helm, these free, first-come, first-served learning events helped attendees develop many necessary skills that will last a lifetime, enhance their boating experience and definitely prove that BC is even better when boating. The event was a real success, and Candock will surely participate again. Will you be there next year? We will.
