Multimedia: Largest-ever Baltimore Boat Show

January 25, 2008

This year’s Baltimore Boat Show hosts the two largest boats in its 54-year history at the Convention Center: a 45-foot Hunter Marine 45 sailboat and a 42-foot Rinker 400 Express cruiser.

The show also marks the debut of SailFest, a new component dedicated to sailing, which features new keelboats, catamarans and skiffs “docked” along a replica pier.

“The show is the largest ever, with 700 boats filling all 300,000 square feet of exhibition space at the Baltimore Convention Center,” said Show Manager Mike Duffy.

Daily Record Photographer Rich Dennison was at the Convention Center during Monday’s setup and at Wednesday’s opening night, where $40 tickets were offered for more avid boaters. He’s produced the audio slideshow below to share his experiences at the boat show, which will run through Sunday.
