The 4th Annual Nova Scotia In-Water Boat Show will be taking place at Bishop's Landing on the Halifax Waterfront from Friday, 23rd July - Sunday, 25th July, 2010. Please keep checking back for updates on who will be exhibiting and other information.
The 3rd Annual Nova Scotia In-Water Boat Show took place at the Halifax Waterfront , 31st July - 2nd August, 2009. Presented by the Nova Scotia Boatbuilders Association (NSBA), the show featured 22 custom and semi-custom Maritime-built boats of all shapes and sizes.
"We presented a unique fleet of locally built boats - something for everyone." reports Tim Edwards, NSBA's Executive Director. "There were pleasure boats, a fishing boat, rescue and patrol boats, a scientific research vessel, as well as traditional dories and two day sailors on display. It was a true showcase of our boatbuilding industry."
Visitors to the show were able to climb aboard the boats and meet the builders and owners - something that's not always possible at other boat shows.
