Features

Mega TankWhether you're in the market for a new boat or not, there's so much to see at this year's Mid-Canada Boat Show that you'd better plan to come a little early. In addition to three floors of the latest in boats, motors, fishing gear, cottage lifestyle, destinations and outdoor equipment, we've got  wakeboard demonstrations and fishing forums.

Pleasure fishermen and master anglers alike are bound to pick up a couple of new tricks watching the pros demonstrate their best techniques casting for live fish in the 5,000 gallon Mega Fish Tank. Learn from the pros during the Fishing Forum. While you're at the show, obtain your Pleasure Craft Operators Card from one of the authorized testers.

If it is time for a new boat, take advantage of the special Show pricing dealers will be offering. And don't forget, every boat and motor package valued at $15,000 or more purchased at the Show will be entered in a draw for a chance to win $5,000 towards their purchase. So much to see, so much to save!
