PORTS Cruising Guides wholesale orders are now being prepared by the CY Media Team. Canadian Yachting Media would like to extend the availability of PORTS through the recreational marine retail network in Ontario and is accepting new retailers.
The new 2020 PORTS Georgian Bay, North Channel & Lake Huron Guide is available as well as Lake Ontario 2016 and Trent Severn Waterway & Lake Simcoe 2016. PORTS has been a well-known retail commodity since 1984 and the addition of the FREE mobile app to the 2020 guide adds even greater value to this trusted publication. A Cruising guide at the core, PORTS also offers invaluable information to Day Boaters and Cottage Boaters through the detailed information on anchorages, local marine services, attractions, and restaurants as well as updated and labelled aerial photos and maps. The new cover format and added lifestyle photos throughout, make the guide a great gift for anyone who boats in these Ontario regions.

Televisions on a boat are increasingly commonplace. With the simple-to-install Glomex Avior VT300 Omnidirectional TV/FM antenna from GA Communications, it's never been easier to bring analog and digital broadcasts onboard—at a price that's hard to ignore.
The most noticeable feature of the Avior VT300 antenna is its compact white, anti-yellowing radome. At only 4" dia. x 8" H and 8.8 oz., it's specifically made for smaller boats that can't accommodate large TV antenna domes and only need short range reception, depending on height and conditions. The amplifier allows the antenna to have an increase in gain with a 24.5 dB average to receive vertical and horizontal polarized TV signals simultaneously from 360°.
