Do You Know Someone Who Should be a Kingman Boater?

Front Docks Sunset 8-13
Maybe you have a friend who just bought a boat.  Or know someone who moved away 
from or is, for some reason, unhappy with their current marina.  Or a buddy who has been 
boating for years in Boston or Narragansett Bay and is ready for a change of scenery ... 
Someone you'd love to join you for a summer of fun at KYC?
  
If this sounds like someone you know, we'd love to talk with him or her.
Just send us the contact information and ask them to expect our call. 
 
IF THEY END UP RENTING A SLIP OR MOORING AT KYC FOR THE SUMMER SEASON 
WE'LL REWARD YOU WITH $400 TO EITHER THE KINGMAN FUEL DOCK OR THE 
CHART ROOM RESTAURANT!  YOUR CHOICE. 
 
We're looking for new, seasonal boaters who you think would really appreciate all that 
KYC and Buzzards Bay have to offer.  Please let John Burman know if you have 
any questions or know the perfect person.
 
Thank you!


Product Spotlight:  
Navionics' Dock-To-Dock Auto-Routing Software

Navionics Dock to Dock
                                                                  Reprinted from Panbo, by Ben Ellison 12/31/2015

I first tried Navionics original autorouting algorithms when they became a $10 option in 
its Boating app and then again when Raymarine integrated the Navionics feature into 
its Lighthouse MFD software. Like Garmin and C-Map autorouting, it was okay at finding 
the shortest path in fairly open waters, but it didn't honor navigation buoys and it often 
choked up completely when challenged with narrow passages.... So it was great to see 
the new Dock-to-dock algorithms lay out a sensible route all the way from Gloucester inner 
harbor to the Kingman Marina deep in Cataumet....
