A Nike Ad featuring Markus Naslund just floated on by...

Yes, you read the title correctly. The Advertisement FLOATED on by my window at work, which overlooks English Bay.

I've been told its one of the first in North America. 

 

EDIT: Its actually not English Bay nor Coal Harbour but the Burrard Inlet.

This fugly ad as been floating around English Bay and Coal harbor for over a month now...(the pic above is in Coal Harbor, local's don't call it Burrard Inlet.. unless you're a boater).

A big waste of Nike's $$$. Most people can't read the ad from the shore. When they can read "ready for your :15", they don't get it.

Yeah, I saw this a few weeks ago out in English bay. Good idea I guess but it was very hard to read and does it really make a difference? It's like those god-awful billboards on trucks. I used to see them all the time in Montreal but I don't remember what any of them were advertising for.

I can see what you are talking about docked near Mosquito Creek Marina. I can see it from my office too and was thinking it might be like the floating basketball court that I saw while travelling in Rotterdam a couple of years ago. Is it just a "floating ad" as you say?
