Palm Beach Boat Show

Nantucket Insider, Christina Martin, of Nantucket Boat Basin fills us in on her visit to the Palm Beach Boat Show! This year the 30th annual Palm Beach International Boat Show was in West Palm Beach – just across the intracoastal from Palm Beach – at Palm Harbor Marina.

Lots of local Palm Beach area residents and boaters – as well as many from Fort Lauderdale and Miami attended. Also, many from New England came to this show – especially to get away from the winter weather!

PBBS14127web Mega yacht charter boat brokers mostly-were among the crowd to show off their boats and book charters and sell big boats as well. All the captains and crews are onboard the boats, greeting and chatting with potential clients and longtime clients. Many in the industry use it as a social time too, it's a great opportunity to stop in and see how your associates are doing. I saw a few of our guests checking out potential new boats!
