Toronto Yacht Club is hiring seasonal labourers to shrink wrap boats for winter storage. We have been doing this since 2017 out of three marinas: Krates in Keswick, Grand Harbour in Brechin, and Driftwood Cove in Port Severn, plus mobile work around Toronto.
Shrink wrapping is building a wood frame over a boat, pulling heavy plastic over the frame, and shrinking it tight so it holds up to snow and wind all winter. The season runs from the end of September through January. It is outdoor work in the cold and it moves quick, because every boat has to be covered before the weather turns.

Measure and cut lumber to length on site
Pull, position and heat shrink the plastic over the frame
Install vents, zipper doors and strapping

Qualifications
Experience with hand tools. Skill saw, drills, the usual.
