Because Southern Georgian Bay is one of the busiest recreational boating areas in the world and because there have been several instances where boaters in distress have been unable to contact the Coast Guard for assitance via VHF Radio, we would like the Canadian Coast Guard and the Canadian Department of Fisheries and Oceans to install a VHF repeater in Penetanguishene forthwith.

WE NEED BETTER COVERAGE. People are out there boating all day and it is scary not being able to reach anyone when things go wrong.

Too many dead zones out there. Had a buddy stall his engine near the shoals last summer and had zero signal on the radio. This is a massive safety issue for everyone on the water.

Can’t see this hunk of steel being a great attraction for tourists

Not a great idea, too close to local residents and school, visual distraction
