The 43nd Annapolis Sailboat Show runs from Thursday October 4th to Monday October 8th 2012.

On first hearing about this sailboat show I thought it was a little one and couldn’t find any figures for size and visitor numbers.  Together with the Powerboat show which runs from Thursday 11th to Sunday 14th October they will have visitors of around 100,000, not bad for a “little one”.

According to the literature there is the usual sailboat show fare.  Premiering boats, new gadgets, marine merchandise, free seminars and interactive boating classes.  Those serious about buying can attend on the Thursdays, VIP day for each show.
