Another trip around the sun is coming to a close and that means one thing for certain: the December issue of Pacific Yachting is on its way!
This issue is jam-packed with holiday magic. Join Nadia Dale as she reminisces over Twinkle Lights and Martha Stewart inspired cooking classics. On board, try bracing the cold weather at sea and learn how to combine Winter Cruising with Little Ones through the tried-and-true parental expertise of Ashley MacKinnon. Spoiler alert: parenting on the water includes a healthy balance of fishy-cracker bribes.
Between Tom Davis’s Stocking Stuffers for Anglers and Eamon Irving’s Holiday Gift Guide for boaters, the shops on shore won’t know what hit them—and neither will that special someone unwrapping a brand new Orca Display and Core 2 navigation suite.
And of course, for those frost-bitten boating spirits on the verge of hypothermia, tales from 2026 summer Rendezvousare sure to warm the imagination. Also checkout Rick Hudson’s trek into the North Coast via the Inside Passage and Marianne Scott’s investigation into the future of cold-moulded wooden boats, made right here in BC with Local Aspiration.
This holiday season, curl up with your favourite maritime magazine and get lost in the pages of Pacific Yachting. We hope you’ll find what you’re looking for.
