DISCOVERING CANADA
Imagine the 'thoughts of Samuel
de Champlain as he explored deep
into the unknown country of Qan-
ada; up the mighty St. Lawrence
River, through island -dotted Geor-
gian Bay and Into what is today
the 'Trent -Severn Waterwaty. Et
must have 'been a thrilling ex-
perience.
That same experience is being
relived by thousands of boating
families each year as they re-
discever Canada by water.
Long distance outboard trips,' an
oddity "same years ago, have now
become common -place. With the
water vistas that outlboarders could
never hope to reach ten `years ago.
Today, instead of being confined 'tp
home waters, the mobile 'boatman
can 'explore lakes and rivers hund-
reds of miles from home each new
week -end.
Here are some tips 'to make
trailering safer and easier:
1. Use safety chains., They can
save a' nasty aecident-,--and be-
sides, they're required by law.
2. Cheek trailer , hitch and .hie -
downs for secureness 'after driv
ing a few miles.
3. Loosen tie -downs when trailer
is parked overnight.
