I have been to Vancouver several times. Beautiful city and the food selection is second to none. The marinas are well done.
Vancouver is a great city to visit. The scenery is gorgeous and people love to be outdoors, boating and hiking and there’s a variety of options in restaurants. Thanks for watching!😎
What a show to see and now that just makes decisions more interesting. Thanks for showing that old Chris Craft, they are nice boats. Glad to hear that they are making a diesel outboard and that may be a new approach . Lots of choices and its is fun to shop. Enjoy
We could have spent more time exploring all the boats. Certainly a great place to gather information about anything nautical! Thanks for watching Buck😎
Great tour of what is offered in new boats. Diesel outboards seems like a great idea. At least you know what you are looking for and have enough experience boating to know what to expect in performance and use. The right one is out there you just have to find it. Fun to search.
Always fun to look! And interesting to see diesel outboards. Thanks for watching Buck😎
That was a humungous boat show! I enjoyed the tour of the boat show.
One of the best boat shows we’ve been to. Once we went to the boat show in Miami and that one was HUGE!
Good morning ! I sincerely enjoyed your video on the boat show in Vancouver. Thank you for all the great information I love all of your videos.
Hello Kim and thank you so much for your kind comments!😃 We appreciate your positive feedback. Thanks for watching!
I’m glad you enjoyed touring the Fleming. I love mine. I honestly don’t think that the maintenance and upkeep is any more than other boats of the same size. But since I’m solo on my 58, it’s easier to keep up with the household chores.
Glad you’re still enjoying your Fleming Roger. It’s a beautiful vessel!😃
Note that Fleming is spelled with only one “m”. And if you haven’t seen them, you should watch the videos shown on RUclips by Tony Fleming aboard his 65 foot Fleming named VENTURE as he explores so many venues in the Pacific Northwest-fascinating and very relevant to your new home base.
Robert, I realize I misspelled Fleming and we have seen some of Tony Fleming’s footage. What a comfortable way to explore these waters!😃
Great to see at West Coast boat show. They float differently there.
Thanks for watching Doug!😎
Thank you for another interesting and enjoyable video. Did you ever consider a sailing boat. Here in Ireland all our coasts have R.N.L.I. stations our 2 larger lakes have them also. They are all manned by volunteers and paid by public subscription. Since it started I believe they have saved over 100 thousand souls.
Interesting to read about the RLNI and its history. (For others it stands for Royal National Lifeboat Institution) The volunteers are certainly dedicated and courageous.
While many boaters are sailors, we have limited experience with small sailboats. It is more work operating a larger sailboat and we simply prefer a powerboat with less lines to trip over! Thanks for watching Andrew!😃
You saw some Ranger tugs I see so you probably can see why I like them. Your comments about floating logs Reminded me Of the Show " The Beachcombers " so I understand why you are thinking Aluminum. Just curious did you see any Sargo's as their NA distributor is west coast based?
John, we a certainly understand the draw of the Ranger Tugs - really nice design and layout. We also remember “The Beachcombers”. I don’t remember seeing Sargo boats but perhaps we missed them?
I do not know who can afford a volunteer-job nowadays in Canada...?
I think those days are gone...the cost of transportation, phone, internet and daily living skyrocketed...I am in Alberta so my point of reference might not be true in BC.... maybe in BC the gov. throws a lot of free money at the people who are bored...
The SAR volunteers are most often retirees with extensive nautical experience and specific training. Also rather than quitting full-time work cold turkey, some people choose to work part-time allowing for volunteer work and a chance to give back.
About one third of our volunteers in RCMSAR are retired. The others, such as myself, juggle work and family commitments with volunteering. Most small town and rural fire departments in BC are staffed by volunteer firefighters.
Mark, thank you for all your valuable and dedicated work as a RCMSAR volunteer. It is appreciated by all B.C. boaters.🙏🩵
Have you realized yet there is no perfect boat for you , I understand your concern but you need to adjust your ideas a little to find something that will work not spend your whole retirement looking and just go boating.
We have plenty of things to do in our retirement and are in no hurry while we peruse our options. After decades of owning many different vessels, we are confident in our requirements for a boat. There is no perfect boat and when the right one comes along we’ll know. Thanks for watching!
