Mandatory PFD Wear Survey CSBC
Safe Boating Awareness - "Wear It!"
Ontario Sailing is a member of the Canadian Safe Boating Council (CSBC)
and works with Transport Canada, the Recreational Boating Advisory
Council (RBAC), and the Canadian Marine Advisory Council (CMAC) on
behalf of its members.
The CSBC PFD Task Force created a "Best Practices" position as follows:
"The CSBC believes that all operators of all sizes and types of kayaks,
canoes and self propelled vessels and all types of other craft that are
6 metres or less in length, while passengers are on deck and while the
boat is underway, should wear lifejackets or PFDs."
Lifejackets and PFDs come in many various styles and types and some of
these include inflatable PFDs.
Please go to our
Mandatory PFD Wear Survey and take a moment to
answer whether or not you agree with the above statement.
Thank you!

New trailer arrived
Thursday April 16th was moving day. With
the help of our volunteers, we were able to reposition the boat trailer
south, move the new LTW trailer into the old boat trailer spot and then
raise trailers 1,2,3,5 and 6 onto 6X6 support beams. It was a great
morning. A special thanks to those who helped: Marcus Hartmann, Wade
Graham, Alan Backlund, Andrew Cagney, Niv Froehlich and Barry Holzkenner,
and to Igor Renkas who prepared the boat trailer the night before.
