Speakers & Presenters Needed 

Our popular seminar series has grown to more than 100 seminars - and with that comes an expanding need for more and more compelling topics and presenters!  

If you know of a relevant topic, or good speaker/presenter for any of the following, please contact seminar manager Cynthia Hare as soon as possible (604-678-8820).

Main Presentation Rooms - Boating experts from around the world educate, inspire and entertain, sharing their experience and expertise on everything from boating basics to spellbinding boating adventures.

DIY Garage
- With topics such as refinishing, changing fluids, minor electrical and engine repairs, scheduled presentations cover do-it-yourself projects for boatowners. At non-scheduled times, onsite technicians informally answer boater questions, one-on-one.
 
Dockside Grill - Our new cooking stage features cooking demonstrations, and tips and tricks for dishing up tantalizing fare onboard and dockside.
