Maine Boat Show 2012 Schedules

What better way to feed your boating fever than with a visit to a spring, or summertime, 2012 Maine boat show.

Along with local Maine boat builders the larger shows will often include dozens of other exhibitors.

Near dazzling displays of new sailboats and powerboats you can find an assortment of marine supply equipment, nautical gear...

and various other seafaring paraphernalia. But, go prepared...

Where are the best places to stay for boat shows in Maine?

Read hotel reviews, check rates for Maine hotel deals.

Most boat show exhibitors either limit the type of footwear allowed on their boats to soft-soled shoes, or prohibit the wearing of all footwear, with the exception of socks.

Understandably so, their boats are beautiful and they want to keep them that way. Your best bet is to wear shoes that slip on and off easily.
