Designed for exciting day sailing and crew participation, "Anything Goes" is a Catalina 275 Sport with a powerful rig with large main and self-tacking jib, which makes the 275 not only fast, but also super-easy to sail.

The cockpit is what the 275 is all about - roomy for 6 (including skipper). Steering is simple with a carbon fibre tiller and autopilot - allowing your skipper to not only steer but play host serving you while underway.

YOUR SAFETY IS AT RISK

When considering chartering a yacht in Canada, we know you have many options.  Some of these options look super exciting and at ridiculously great pricing.  Recent trends in the chartering industry have opened the door for many individuals to purchase boats and offer charter services.  It’s easy to create a website and even easier now to just list a boat on sites such as Facebook Market Place, Kijiji, Getmyboat, Boat Setter and many others.

Unfortunately, many of these operators are NOT licensed, insured or qualified to accept your trust on the water.

In order to be licensed and insured a number of items MUST be in place.

·         The operator must be licensed by Transport Canada with a commercial license known as either:

o   Limited Master under 60tonne.

o   Small Vessel Operators Permit (SVOP).

·         The name of the vessel must be visible on the stern (back) or the registration number beginning with the letter “C” must be visible on the side of the vessel near the front.  Boats with a registration number beginning with “ON” are not licensed for passengers.

·         If the vessel is under 12m (40’) it should participate in the Transport Canada Small Vessel Compliance Program and display a “Blue Decal” and have corresponding certificate.

·         If the vessel is over 12m (40’) or carries more than 12 passengers, it MUST BE INSPECTED by Transport Canada and have an inspection certificate on board.

·         All vessels must have commercial liability insurance for PASSENGER CARRIAGE

Many of these illegal operators do not have the proper training, carry proper safety equipment, nor do their recreational boats meet the design/construction requirements of a commercial, passenger carrying vessel.

These illegal operators try to stay under the radar of Police/OPP/RCMP by:

·         hiding the name of their vessel by hanging items over the stern

·         not letting you know where they will have you board until just before the start of your charter

·         pick you up at a public park (where docking is not permitted)

·         suggest to you that you are friends of the owner out for a ride and not a paying customer

·         allow you to drink alcohol while the boat is underway (illegal-same as a car) but tell you to hide your bottles etc.

·         insist on a cash transaction or part of it as a way of defrauding the internet listing company.

·         Make you sign a “Bareboat Charter Agreement” just before you board without giving you details of the document beforehand.

Over the last few years there have been a number of deaths and even more accidents resulting from these types of operators.  Be safe and know who you are getting on a boat with.  All licensed operators should willingly display their credentials and most are members of the Passenger & Commercial Vessel Association  (PCVA).
