Plans Announced for Newport International Boat Show

The 49th Annual Newport International Boat Show will take place from September 12 to 15 at the Newport Yachting Center in downtown Newport, Rhode Island.

One of the largest in-water boat shows in the country, the Newport International Boat Show encompasses more than 13 acres of Newport’s waterfront and will host hundreds of exhibitors from around the world with new powerboats and sailboats ranging from 15 to 90 feet, plus an extensive selection of marine equipment, services and accessories for boaters.

In addition to the boats, products and services, there will be events to educate and entertain visitors, like the Confident Captain’s At The Helm in-water instruction program and seminars hosted by America Boating Club. Also, the Newport For New Products (NFNP) program provides attendees with the opportunity to view boats and products making their debut in the U.S. Each NFNP entry is judged by a panel of experts and awards are given for best new powerboat; sailboat; navigation product; and boating operation, maintenance or safety product.
