Hello all,

Just curious, can anyone give me a any details on the sailboat show
in Annapolis MD October 10 - 12th. I’m coming down from Canada to
check it out as I have heard that it is the largest sailboat show in
the States.

If you have been, what was your impression of the show?

Does it cater more to larger boat owners than smaller?

What was your impression of the vendors?

Are tickets available at the gates upon entering the show?

Any other details that you can offer to assure that I do not miss
any important parts.

Thanks to all in advance who can give me any details.

Kind regards,

Dave Rodgers # 42 ‘Havana’

Hello all,Just curious, can anyone give me a any details on the sailboat show in Annapolis MD October 10 - 12th. I’m coming down from Canada to check it out as I have heard that it is the largest sailboat show in the States.If you have been, what was your impression of the show? Very good. Fewer sailboats(manufacturers) almost every year. But, still worth the trip.Does it cater more to larger boat owners than smaller? For sailboats on display they favor the larger boats but, there is a pretty good representation of the smaller boats.What was your impression of the vendors? Best part of the show in my opinion. If you already have a boat, you can get a lot of ideas and advice.
Are tickets available at the gates upon entering the show? Yes.Any other details that you can offer to assure that I do not miss any important parts. Make sure you try the pit beef and beer at the Fleet Reserve Club.Thanks to all in advance who can give me any details.Kind regards,Dave Rodgers # 42 ‘Havana’

Dave,
parking is a big problem at the show. You can park at the Naval Academy stadium and take a bus to the show.This is the best all sailboat show I have ever seen. Plan on an all day visit. Lots of restuarants within walking distance.Enjoy!!!

Biff
