Good day and.welcome to the warm of August...one of my favourite months! I enclosed a great picture of the morning sun shinning through some awesome flowers just to set the mood. My own garden which is set up to peak in late July and early August is magnificent especially for a two year old garden. Still some work to do to get is right! I will try and get some pictures and put in the blog this week. August here at the marina is still very very busy with boat sales, service and rentals. With the return of normal Muskoka summer weather for the first time in three years....everyone has rediscovered the Muskoka's. This is perhaps the busiest I have seen town in a number of years this weekend.
We managed to get the new Manitou Pontoons on the water and they definitely did not disappoint! Solid very solid with no rattles or flex which is very unusual for a pontoon. These boats are bolted and welded together which costs a bit more but the difference is most definitely there in ride and quality. Our pontoon prospects have been impressed as well with the high performance 22 Xplode sold with a 250 Mercury Optimax and the 20 Aurora sold as well. Manitou's patented V Toon technology with the larger deeper center generates the best lift in the pontoon industry, hole shot and high speed handling. I was looking at a very expensive 24' new Bennigton with a 150 Etec. The center pontoon is the same size as the outers and watching the Bennington underway in the lake it did not turn nearly as well as a Manitou or have the same lift. The boat looked good but for that kind of dough the performance is not there! Seems Bennington's only come in one colour a dark burgundy.
Steeler training camp opened this week and Big Ben has managed to stay out of trouble!
