Rendez-vous Natique

 

The 12th edition of the Rendez-vous Nautique, organized by the Montreal-based Aquanaute Training Centre, had one of its best records of attendance, with an estimate of over five hundred boats. The event took place once again on the beach of Oka National Park on the lake of Two Mountains, over a two-day period, on July 4th and 5th.
