About the Show

Thanks for visiting! The 2008 show is now over and we're busy planning for 2009. See you then!

Get a head start on summer at the “all new” Baltimore Boat Show! Baltimore’s largest and oldest boat show is celebrating its 54th year by increasing exhibit space and adding new features! The expanded show now fills the entire Baltimore Convention Center with more than 600 new boats and booths showcasing the latest marine equipment, electronics, fishing gear and accessories. New feature areas include SailFest, a 50,000 sq. ft. all-sailing showcase, the Accessory Center where you’ll see what’s next, NOW, and a dedicated fishing section featuring boats, gear and accessories. The 5-day event is also the best time to buy, offering you a once-a-year chance to compare makes and models, secure insurance and financing and gear up with the latest accessories all at one time, under one roof!

Special attractions make a day at the show a day of fun for the whole family. Enjoy the “Fishing for Laughs” comedy show, hosted by Curt Strutz, The Bassmeister. Test your skills at the Power Boat Docking Challenge. Watch casting demos at the Fetch-n-Fish Tank. Get tips from the pros at fishing, boating and sailing seminars. Young anglers can try their luck in the trout pond. There really is something for everyone!
