Ever been to a boat show? What about a Bay Bridge Boat Show? Now, can you say that five times fast? 

The 2018 spring boat show is coming up this weekend at the Bay Bridge Marina in Stevensville, Md. The springtime convention has been bringing powerboats, now over 400 of them, to the Annapolis area for 36 years at this event, the largest of its kind north of Florida. 

“Steady year over year growth has resulted in the largest Bay Bridge Boat Show booked in over a decade, and perhaps ever,” said Annapolis Boat Show President Paul Jacobs. 

During the three-day event, Shore Tackle and Custom Rods will provide fishing, casting and rod-building lessons, Chesapeake Bay Magazine and the Annapolis School of Seamanship will host free boating seminars and various dealers will conduct demos at the PropTalk Demo Dock. Lunch options will be available at the food court on-site, drinks will be for sale at various beer trailers and a kids’ play area will keep all the young sailors-in-training entertained.  

The show boats over 100 exhibitor booths, and in addition to powerboats, there will also be center consoles, pontoon boats, wake and ski boats, kayaks, SUPs, inflatables and more.
