There will be parents zipping up little coats for the first time this morning, and if you pop into The Binnacle, we’ll zip you into a ZHIK Cell Insulated Jacket with Repreve recycled performance fibre. 🥶 We have the multi-functional layer on SALE at the moment in Platinum and Black for men and women (although women’s sizes are now limited). Things will warm up for the weekend, so grab a lightweight shell while you’re here.
FYI: There are winter coat drives happening all over the place, so if you’re overflowing with extra warmth - look into donating yours to Soul’s Harbour or Parker Street Food Bank.

The last Cat Ferry of the season pulled out of Yarmouth yesterday after a busy tourist season. We met so many neighbours from the south, soaking up Canadian hospitality and reminding us that we live in pretty awesome place. The connection with Maine is so important and we look forward to next year when the Cat comes back! We still have plenty of cruise ships popping into Halifax until November 5th, so we’re not rolling up the welcome mat just yet! And we’re seeing 0° temps dropping by as well, so cruise by for a layer or two!

With what’s ahead, the only thing better than one layer is three. ZHIK’s Softshell 3L Jacket is the mid-layer you reach for when the weather gets weird, but you’re still up for the challenge. Wind resistant, waterproof, and fleecy - it’s a trifecta that has your back in freezing rain, first tracks in powder, or when sailing around the world seems like a good idea. And, who are we kidding - hockey dads, winter cyclists, those who shovel, and anyone who works or plays outdoors would love a layer like this. We carry the Softshell in Black in sizes S to XXL - online and onshore. It’s also on SALE making it the perfectly practical gift for under the tree.

Imagine the feasts you could prepare with the MAGMA Induction friendly, 10-pc Nesting Cooking Set. 🦃 Stainless steel up top with a tri-clad steel, aluminum, and magnetic stainless steel bottom means quality heat distribution that won’t burn the gravy. After dinner, it all tucks away neatly into less space than a frozen turkey. All that, and it’s currently on SALE - just in time for Thanksgiving. This set is ideal for RVs, boats, and kitchens where storage is an issue. Drop by or grab a set binnacle.com.

A “Freighter Full of Potential” is the best kind of freighter. Artist, Kaz Jones has a few new ship paintings at The Prow Gallery on Lower Water Street. At 24” by 60” you could dock one just about anywhere. 🚢
At The Binnacle, we deal with boats of all sizes - from Optis to bulk carriers and everything in between. If only we could paint.
