Some of B.C.’s leading yachting businesses bring coastal yachting to the prairies on June 7th. The Calgary Yachting Forum, being held at the Westin Hotel in downtown Calgary on June 7th, 2007, offers seminars and information dedicated to help Calgary boaters and would-be boaters discover the yachting lifestyle.
“Its no secret that more and more Albertan’s are looking west for their leisure & boating pursuits, so it makes perfect sense to come to Calgary” says Nuno Miguel Alves of One 4 Yacht Fractions, Canada’s leading fractional yacht ownership company. David Worland, of Yacht Sales West, estimates that approximately 1/3rd of his clients come from the Alberta market and this was the prime reason for their participation. “It’s a great opportunity for us to educate the marketplace and meet people personally, said Worland. If yacht ownership is not in your plans, instruction and charter options will also be offered. Colin Jackson, President of Cooper Boating, will share the ins and outs of chartering both sail and motor yachts throughout the B.C. Coast.
The event will be held on June 7, 2007 at the Westin Hotel: 320 Fourth Ave., S.W. Calgary, AB between 10am-7pm.
