The Rideau Canal winds through some of the most spectacular landscapes: rugged Canadian Shield, small outcrops of islands dotted with gnarled pine trees, shores crowded with Adirondack chairs and fishing lines of what is the quintessential Ontario cottage country, pastoral farm lands, and lastly, Ottawa, a city that offers everything from national galleries and museums to outdoor markets and a vibrant night life.

Clear blue skies and calm coastal waters - we couldn't have asked for better weather for the 2nd Annual Spring Flotilla. Of course fog as thick as pea soup, torrential downpours, and thunderstorms made the experience that much more interesting.

After the success of the 1st Flotilla, this year PDQ Yachts held an even bigger event with 8 new boats captained by their owners participating on the 11-day, 715 mile journey from Whitby, ON to Annapolis, MD.

In the spring of 2001, PDQ launched the first powercat. Three years later and we're getting ready to launch hull # 50 - making the MV/34 Passagemaker the best selling North American cruising power catamaran.

"Within 30 seconds of running the boat we knew we had a winner," said PDQ President Simon Slater when he took the MV/34 for a sea trial in Whitby harbour.

We anticipate a full build schedule with 22 MV/34s slated for this year alone. Be sure to visit our website to find out more about how we build the MV/34. From the initial design and development work to the hull assembly, mechanical and final commissioning you can now see the various stages of our boat building process.
