Outer Harbour Marina Launches First Boat of 30th Anniversary Season

On Wednesday, April 10, the Outer Harbour Marina marked the beginning of its 30^th boating season with the launch of Leadbelly, a sailboat belonging to Jay Wilkins. Mr. Wilkins, a five-year tenant of the OHM, was “crowned” by marina manager Mike Dwyer with an OHM toque to mark the launch of the first boat of the 2019 season—a nod to the Port of Toronto’s 158-year old Beaver Hat Ceremony.

Opened in 1989, the Outer Harbour Marina is one of Canada’s largest freshwater marinas. The marina’s unique location on the Leslie Street Spit offers unparalleled views of the Toronto city skyline for its approximately 600 tenants, and quick access to both Lake Ontario and Toronto’s inner harbour. 

For the past eight years, the Outer Harbour Marina has earned a 5 Green Anchor Gold rating from the Ontario Marine Operators’ Association as part of the Clean Marine environmental certification program—one of the highest rankings a marina can attain for following environmental best practices.
