Get Ready for the 2024 Annapolis Powerboat Show
The Mid-Atlantic’s Must-See Event of the Season
Every fall, downtown Annapolis transforms into a vibrant epicenter of marine industry, welcoming boating enthusiasts from across the country to the city’s twin in-water power & sail shows. The 2024 Annapolis Powerboat Show, October 3rd to 6th, is set to surpass all expectations, offering a weekend packed with cutting-edge boats, free expert-led seminars, family fun, and more.
A Showcase of Powerboats
At the heart of the Annapolis Powerboat Show lies an impressive display of the newest and most innovative powerboats on the market. With over 300 boats from major manufacturers such as Sea Ray, Boston Whaler, and Grady-White, there’s something for everyone, whether you’re in the market for a high-speed runabout, a luxurious motor yacht, or a versatile fishing boat. Attendees have the rare opportunity to board these vessels in-water and compare them side by side. This is your chance to see and feel the future of boating.
Expert Seminars and Education
Knowledge is power, and the Annapolis Powerboat Show delivers it in spades. A robust lineup of seminars will arm you with the latest insights into boating trends, safety protocols, and maintenance techniques. From in-depth workshops on electronic navigation to performing CPR on pets, these sessions cater to both seasoned boaters and those new to the helm. In addition to the Show’s free seminars, BoatUS offers the opportunity for you to master the basics with their On-Water training program. Learn from the best in the industry and elevate your boating skills to new heights.
Family-Friendly Activities
The Annapolis Powerboat Show isn’t just for the hardcore boating crowd; it’s a fantastic outing for families too. The event’s organizers and exhibitors have gone the extra mile to ensure there’s plenty to keep your youngins entertained. CCA’s kids’ corner offers hands-on activities, crafts, and games that inspire a love for fishing and marine life. Plus, with downtown Annapolis only a few steps from the showgrounds, there’s no shortage of fun (and ice cream cones) for the whole family.
Shopping and Dining
What’s a boat show without shopping? The Annapolis Powerboat Show hosts a vibrant marketplace with hundreds of exhibitors offering everything from the latest marine electronics to stylish boating apparel and accessories. Whether you’re hunting for a new navigation system, a pair of deck shoes, or custom boat covers, you’ll find it there. You may walk the docks of the Show with a Pusser’s painkiller, and when hunger strikes, you need only head toward one of the city’s gastronomic delights to enjoy a meal with a stunning waterfront view.
