A new feature and some reminders
OK boat folks, this issue we are debuting the initial version of our new CYOB Classified.
Not long ago, there were several publications with classified advertising that boat buyers and sellers as well as people looking for boat related stuff depended on for ads. No More. Everything (EVERYthing) is online and eBay and or Kijiji have wiped out print. But neither of those sites (or Craigslist or Backpage!) do much for serious boat gear. We are about to, at no charge, of course.
There's a small ad sampling in this issue and we hope you'll grow it with us week by week. Click here to go to the CYOB Classifieds and email CYOBclassified@kerrwil.com to place your free ad. The guidelines are on the site.
To increase the reach, please share this link to subscribe at no charge.Also, a reminder to send us calendar dates, one-design news, club and marina events, Photo of the Week, opinions, rants, letters, poetry and anything else.
CY OnBoard is the community news for boaters and enthusiasts in Canada and it's all yours!
