A water-skiing squirrel is coming to the Vancouver International Boat Show

This February, a water-famous squirrel will be making an appearance in Vancouver.

And no, we haven’t gone nuts.

Twiggy, a famous, water-skiing squirrel, will be one of the highlights of the Vancouver International Boat Show. The event, entering its 58th year, takes place from Wednesday, February 5 to Sunday, February 9, 2019.
