Just wanted to let you know that it’s now confirmed: the INA 2024 International Rendezvous is happening.
It will be in Toronto, Canada, at facilities of the Royal Canadian Yacht Club and Mimico Cruising Club, with activities July 26-28. There will be capacity for those arriving on their own boats to dock in the night before, and leave the morning after. We have tentative offering of docking in Whitby, BC, for those in transit before and possibly after. Hotel recommendations will be provided as soon as we have them nailed down.
Details to follow as the schedule and arrangements firm up in December and the new year. Stay tuned to announcements here, on our Facebook Group, www.Nonsuch.org, and in the INA Updates.
Best regards from the INA and the great folks at LONA who are making this possible. We’re really looking forward to seeing you there!

Bob, I am aware of Whitby Estates in West Vancouver, BC but that seems bit far from the rendezvous for those transiting. Did you perhaps intend to type, Whitby, Ontario, which I understand to be somewhat east of Toronto?
You can be forgiven, considering you live in California.
Mark Powers (being way too cheeky)
Of course if you did indeed mean Whitby Estates, I will have a red face and be forced to apologise.
Betcha it’s Whitby, Ontario, a bit east of Toronto.
Sorry, but I laughed when I read “Whitby, B.C.” Before I forget, it’ll be July in Ontario .
So, no parkas, skis, snowshoes, mukluks, scarves, beanies and winter mitts, OK ?? Seriously, any vessel with good A/C will be VERY popular. It will, likely, be just like New York City in July.
However, you’re more than welcome to coordinate arrangements for any INA travellers going through Vancouver on the way to Toronto, Mark.
We appreciate you volunteering and will gladly refer all INA members who choose that route to you.
In the same spirit, I volunteer to assist anyone traveling to the Rendezvous via Mar Vista, Westwood Village, or Culver City, California.
