Boats Afloat Show, you’ll see hundreds of boats the way they were meant to be seen – on the water! From cabin cruisers and sailboats to hundred-foot mega- yachts and everything in between - Boats Afloat has it all! At press time, applications from
dealers and brokers from Washington, Oregon, California, Florida and British Columbia, Canada were still rolling in, but early indications are of some exciting new models, both power and sail, promising once again that Boats Afloat is a not-to-be-missed event that should be on every boater and would-be boater’s calendar. Also new for 2011 is Sport Boat Row
featuring more than 30 wakeboard boats, ski boats and sport boats. Marine Servicenter will have the
all new Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 379 in the Boats Afloat Show. This will be the North American debut for this boat which features a twin wheel cockpit and a hard chine aft which creates better form stability, increased interior volume, and is just damn sexy! Hours: 10:00 am – 6:00 pm daily.
