2026 North Channel Cruise Flotilla

The 2026 North Channel Cruise/Flotilla dates are set: July 25 - August 8, 2026.     It will begin and end in Little Current, Ontario, Canada.  Please NOTE that there will be a registration fee of $20 USD to cover the pizza dinner and flotilla materials.  

2026 will also be our 40th anniversary celebration, which will be in Little Current on July 30 and 31.  There is a separate registration & payment for that event.  Please remember to register for both events (and order your 40th anniversary t-shirt!), if you plan to attend.

Float Plan for 2026 TBA

Please review the following before signing up.

• Keep in mind that we generally have a limit (discretion of the cruise directors) as to number of boats we can handle on the cruise.  If you sign up, please show up.  Payment will be required at signup and no refunds will be issued for cancellations after June 27.

• If your plans must change, please email the cruise leaders as soon as possible and let them know so someone else can have your spot.  

• If you intend to be in the North Channel anyway but have no real intention of staying with the group or participating in group activities, don't sign up.  (but you are welcome to visit us and socialize)

• If you have special circumstances (such as arriving or departing early or late), please note that on the sign-ups.  

• Past trailer sailor group members who currently sail larger craft and would still like to be part of the group are welcome to sign up but check the applicable note on the sign up form.  In the case of too many boats, the larger boats will be expected to anchor further out in smaller anchorages.

• If you are new to these cruises, please read ALL of the articles on our Resources page.  If you are used to staying in a marina every night, this cruise is different. You may need to brush up your anchoring skills, and you may want to purchase some additional equipment.
