Come enjoy our 4
day event intended to supercharge your boating lifestyle.
From your first steps of learning to handle a boat through purchasing your dream boat, Granville Island is Vancouver's centre for all things marine.
Step aboard new Catalina, Bavaria and Dufour sailing yachts. We'll have a good selection of pre-owned power and sailing yachts for sale and sail as well as select charter and club boats from Cooper Boating and the JIB SET sailing club.
New to boating? Come on down and lets chat about getting you out on the water. Cooper Boating offers a full selection of courses from the basics like getting your boat operator's card to cruise and learns and offshore sailing courses for the more adventuresome.
Stepping up your game? Let's start planning your journey of a lifetime - Alaska next spring - circumnavigate Vancouver Island next June - attend one of our 'journey of a lifetime' seminars to start planning your big adventure.
For those with a serious sailing addiction and no boat, the JIB SET sailing club
is the best value for sailing in town and a great way to meet some really
fantastic people who share your addiction.
Enjoy a series of seminars conducted, with admission being your non-perishable food or cash donation to the Vancouver Food Bank. The seminar topics include:
Stepping Stones to the Boating Lifestyle
Boat Buying Basics
Up close and personal with your marine head
When you’re working hard your boat should too (introduction to charter ownership)
MARINE ELECTRICAL 101
and more!!!
The seminars will be held at the participants’ spaces on Mast Tower Road – a detailed schedule will be available shortly, but suffice to say we’ll have interesting topics daily.

We also wish to inform you that Roger Boulet will be departing Cooper Boating at that time. Early this year Roger informed us that he would move on after the current season to pursue his career as an independent marine technician, and while we are pleased for Roger we will all miss his energy.
The addition of Jamie to the Cooper crew will fill the role that Roger is vacating, with his background leading certain local yachts and a management of a local luxury yacht service department. In addition, his certification to several standards as an instructor examiner allows continued growth of the Cooper Boating school.
You will see that Jamie also enjoys sailing - evidenced by this photo.
We would like to take this opportunity to wish Roger well in his future endeavours and to welcome Jamie to the Cooper Crew.
