The TH36 outboard cat debuts in Cannes
The Four Winns TH36 Catamaran had its world premiere at the Cannes Yachting Festival, September 6-11. With its ability to comfortably accommodate up to 15 people for a day out on the water, the forward cockpit alone has enough seating for six. The open space deck is protected by a full beam hard top with the helm on the starboard side and double co-pilot bench on the portside. The galley, in the center of the deck layout, includes spacious storage, refrigerators, a sink, and an optional cooktop with barbecue.
The unique and versatile aft cockpit benches offer the flexibility to form a wide-open space. The large sunbeds can be open to the sea or connected for a cozy and relaxing social area creating the finest moments on the water with those you love.
Outfitted with the choice of either choice twin 300hp or 350hp Mercury engines, or twin 300hp Yamaha engines, both with joystick controls for easy maneuvering, the ride is smooth, sophisticated, and very efficient at any speed. The TH36 will offer many features to fit the needs of any boat owner inclusive of a full soft cockpit enclosure.
The TH36 makes full use of every inch beneath the deck with a generous amount of space. Contemporary elegance flows through two full suites furnished with full size berths, storage cabinets, privacy blinds, closet area, and private heads equipped with a separate, enclosed shower area. Ambient lighting installed overhead with elegant lines throughout the interior add to the comfort.

Viko S35 – A sexy, affordable racer-cruiser
By Katherine Stone
I am lucky to have the opportunity to helm many types of boats. I am even more lucky to sail boats on champagne fall days when many boats are either being hauled for the winter, or are already under shrink-wrap.
Not only are there great winds – usually offshore, but welcome sunshine and open waters with few boats out enjoying the last days of September. Joining me for the test sail of the Viko S35 was the former publisher of Canadian Yachting, Greg Nicoll, and the Canadian Viko Yachts representative, Eric Beauregard, who had driven down from Montreal.
Four Winns H4
By Andy Adams
The well-known Four Winns brand is now a part of the international boatbuilder Groupe Beneteau and the new H4 is a great example of how the design and engineering resources of Beneteau can up the game even for a brand like Four Winns that has a long and distinguished history.
The Cadillac Michigan-built H4 is a brand-new design this year and we think it's especially handsome. The vertical stem bow is all new and innovative. It is a design feature that was chosen to give Four Winns and the H4 a sense of modern and contemporary look while the stern remains more traditional.

West Side Story
by Jennifer M. Smith, drone photos by Alex Nikolajevich
It was the last day of August and we were in Little Current heading south. Our Lasalle winter haul out was still over a month away. The question was: where to now? Friends in Meaford often suggested we sail in for a visit. We never had because we’d always moved north-south on the east side of Georgian Bay. This year we were up for something different. This was the perfect opportunity to cruise the west side of the bay.
We made the 10 a.m. bridge out of Little Current and motor-sailed east southeast in light northerlies. We’d often sailed past Snug Harbour, a nearly land-locked anchorage on the north side of Lansdowne Channel because the chart suggested we’d never make it in there with our six-foot draft.

What to look for and ask about as you plan your vacation times. You’ve invested thousands and thousands of dollars into your boat so naturally, you want to find just the right spot for her to live, and where you can enjoy her to the maximum. Marinas and yacht clubs are just like people, no two are completely alike and finding the one that’s perfect for you, may make you feel a little like Cinderella – searching for the shoe that fits just right.
It’s okay to take your time on this search because the marina you choose is arguably as important a decision as the one to buy your boat.

DIY & How to
Repair and re-paint your deck or cockpit floor
by Marc Robic
After 27 years of sun and traffic, the cockpit floor on Aquaholic was starting to look faded and had many small pinholes and minor surface cracks. These pinholes are mostly caused by small air pockets that lay just below the gelcoat surface. Of course, this is exacerbated by particles such as small rocks or debris under shoes, dropped winch handles, etc.
Luckily, Catalina Yachts is still very much in business and are very helpful when owners have questions or need parts. I ordered a small quantity of original formula Catalina grey and white gelcoat for my model and year.

Thrusters can make docking easier
By Andrew McDonald
Corners like it’s on rails. You can almost see it. A car with a low centre of gravity takes a curve. The driver shifts through the gears and exits the bend with speed and grace. Stops on a dime. That same vehicle smoothly downshifts and comes to a complete stop as though hitting an invisible barrier.
Most of our sailing metaphors evoke thoughts and feelings of strong winds pushing a sleek racer faster, or perhaps the crew tacking or gybing around a mark. We don’t seem to have the same colourful expressions to describe the movement of a power or sailing vessel at slow speeds.

SailGP, the international racing series featuring high speed F50 wingsailed catamarans, is partnering with RS Electric Boats – sister brand of sailboat manufacturer RS Sailing – to use the Pulse 63 electric RIB as chase, coach and support boats.
RS Electric Boats will supply SailGP with four Pulse 63s, which were designed to be electric boats from the outset. The unique aerodynamic hull form is designed to support the weight of the batteries while allowing rapid acceleration, functional speeds up to 23 knots and ample range.
