Self-service boats may be coming
A Finnish company that offers self-service pleasure boats is thinking about expanding past Toronto to offer the service in Ottawa, Vancouver and Montreal.
It’ll make news when somebody gets tangled up in the rapids, that’s for sure.

I must be tired because I read that as self-pleasure service boats and I immediately had questions.

@Blork – Lol. That would be another kind of finish company.

Ha, nice alley-oop! There was a dude tripping his face off at Verdun beach yesterday, playing harmonica in the water and opening his arms to the sun going “awwww” like he was being touched by god. Dad with little kids was laughing at him, a couple were filming him with their phones… but I imagined it turning very un-PG if he had a certain sudden impulse – picture the beach clearing out like a scene from Jaws.

An expensive form of recreation, but much less expensive than owning a boat.
Montreal is a maritime city and we do not appreciate that fact nearly enough.
