Lake Ontario Offshore Racing – Registration Update to June 16

June 10, 2021

LO300/LO600 early bird pricing deadline had passed but with the uncertainty of what public health regulations will be in place or even if the LO300/LO600 can legally proceed on the scheduled dates, the LOOR Organising Authority has decided to move this deadline to June 16th. This will allow our racers some additional time to make a decision of whether they will be able to race or not. If all goes well, it looks as though timing will be good for the LO300/600 to proceed.

LOSHRS races 2 and 3 may need to be either rescheduled or cancelled. A further update will be provided early next month. These are uncertain times, however we will make decisions as soon as possible. We are continuing to plan as though our races will happen.

Thank you for your patience.

Monica Doedens, Chair

ENVGO NV1: Back to the Future

By Andy Adams

Up to this point, I feel that most electric boats have not been very exciting. The motors have been mainly small portable models for dinghies. There are some high-horsepower motors available, but they look like regular outboard motors to be used on conventional boats. Until now, there hasn’t been an electric boat that really makes a statement. Enter the ENVGO NV1.

Canada’s Superior: the North Shore

Story and photos by Jennifer M. Smith

We’d been north before on a short two-week cruise. At the time, we were unprepared for the isolation, the lack of cell phone coverage, and the spotty VHF reception. Since then we’ve repowered, installed Starlink, and retired from work. Now, with confidence in our engine and our connectivity and more time to sail, we were Superior-ready.
