2014 Progressive Insurance Baltimore Boat Show

As Mid-Atlantic families brace for frigid forecasts, the 2014 Progressive Insurance Baltimore Boat Show, celebrating its 60th anniversary, transforms the Baltimore Convention Center at Baltimore’s Inner Harbor into a boater’s paradise Thursday-Sunday, January 23-26.


Visitors to the city’s favorite boating event can climb aboard and compare hundreds of boats for all budgets and lifestyles, from luxury cruisers and fishing boats to family runabouts and pontoons, and take advantage of some of the best deals of the year from the region’s leading dealers, plus shop the latest gizmos and gadgets for life on (and near) the water. There is more to the boat show than boats! Highlights of this year’s show include appearances by the History Channel’s hit TV show, Swamp People, R.J. and Jay Paul Molinere, Fred’s Shed offering dozens of helpful seminars for the DIY boater, a boating simulator, and—new for this year—a chance for visitor’s to get their feet wet in a 50 foot by 50 foot pond for hands-on fly fishing practice, kayaking, and stand-up paddle boarding. The Kids’ Zone features daily activities for the smallest sailors and boaters.
