Glenmore Reservoir, inside city limits, is sailing- and paddling-only — no motors — which gives Calgary a distinct local boating culture compared to the powerboat-heavy lakes further out. Sailors here often need only modest trailer storage since the boats tend to be smaller, while motorized boat owners look further afield to Ghost Lake or Sylvan Lake.
