Ontario's premier boat show, the Port Credit In-Water Boat Show, returns to the Port Credit Harbour Marina – The Boating Super Centre – this August!

Now celebrating its 20th anniversary, the show continues to attract an ever increasing enthusiastic audience of seasoned and novice boaters.
The Port Credit In-Water Boat Show is the only boat show that features both new and used power and sail boats in the water and on land. Come down to the Marina and see new sailboats from Beneteau, Jeanneau, Delphia, Hansa, J-Boats, Hunter, Dufour, C&C, Tartan, Catalina and more!

"This is a boat show for boaters, produced by boaters," said show manager Lori Mason of The Store – Mason's Chandlery. "We have a boat for everybody's budget."

Visitors can expect to see many pre-owned boats, as well as a large display of used boat listings from yacht brokerages. Land displays featuring marine equipment, insurance, finance, charters, sailing schools, boat associations, canvas makers and new products will also be showcased.

Boaters who need to write the Operator's Proficiency Test will be able to take the test at the show with Boat Smart. Discover Boating will also be on hand to answer any questions about how to get into boating.

The Speaker's Tent will also be open for boaters wanting more information about cruising down the Inter-Coastal Waterway, the Caribbean or France. A number of exciting seminars (including DIY) will be hosted by Informedboater.com.

Also back by popular demand is the Consignment Tent. Boaters needing to get rid of gently used boat materials are invited to bring it to Mason's Chandlery prior to the show, and it will be sold during the show. Forty percent of the proceeds will be donated to local youth sailing programs.

There are also a few special surprises planned for the 20th anniversary, said Mason.

The Port Credit In-Water Boat Show will run from 10 a.m. – 7 p.m. on Friday, August 27, 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. on Saturday, August 28 and 10 p.m. – 5 p.m. on Sunday, August 29.
