If you own the sailboat or a power boat in British Columbia’s West Coast, then most likely you fish for prawns and crab. The two new products that British Columbia boater, Jim and Kari are presenting at their booth at this year’s Vancouver International boat show are drawing huge interest.

The Flex Fold Combo Trap effectively catches either crabs or prawns with the same great features as the individual Flex Fold Traps.

Flex Fold Combo 360xThe ALL IN ONE Combo Trap has the versatility to quickly and easily be converted to catch either crabs or prawns. The only effective Combo Trap on the market, it looks and folds the same as the Flex Fold Prawn and Crab Traps but is two-in-one, saving room and money.

~ Stainless Steel (304) construction with round large volume design

~ Three large entrances for super fast fishing with heavy gates

~ Deep set/fast current capable and heavy durable polyester netting

PRO LINE Hauler 360xIntroducing PRO MARINE’S new THIN LINE prawning and crabbing revolution. Transforming the way boaters fish for prawns and crab, the Pro Line Hauler requires no 12v on board power source like other haulers and is fast, sturdy, and compact. The secret lies in using 400lb test small diameter line which means less space and virtually no drag in the water.

FEATURES:

~ Made of heavy-duty powder coated aluminum
~ Pre-spooled with 400ft small diameter line
~ Can be used as a windlass or stern tying device

Neptunus 650F Review

Neptunus 650F 400

By Andy Adams

Over the years Canadian Yachting has had the pleasure of doing several boat review articles on new Neptunus models and we are familiar with the qualities that Neptunus is famous for. They have all been exceptional yachts, but this is the one I would most want to own myself. It’s a personal choice and a matter of taste as to whether you would prefer to have a sedan express model or a flybridge but in my opinion, the flybridge layout offers some wonderful attributes.

We met with Neptunus Managing Director Jan Willem De Jong this past fall to take the new Neptunus 650F out in Lake Ontario.

The Other Virgin Islands

Sunset off St John

By Mark Stevens
