Happy Inflatable Life Jacket World Record Day

Time for our weekly boating event roundup which we hope will inspire you to go to a boat show this weekend, and to boat safely all season. And if you came out to the Mystic Seaport in CT last weekend, thanks for your support!

This Saturday is the first day of Safe Boating Week in the US and Canada, and to kick it off, the National Safe Boating Council and the Canadian Safe Boating Council are hosting Inflatable Life Jacket World Record Day on Thursday, May 20, 2010 (That’s today!)

Of course, there are boat shows all over the world this weekend, and hopefully one near you. Yesterday was the first day of Beirut Boat 2010 in the Middle East, and the Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show began Thursday in a land down under (ooh yeaaah.)

Here in the US, there are boat shows on both coasts with Trawler Fest Anacortes happening today through Saturday in Washington, and the Raleigh Summer Boat Show beginning today in North Carolina and going through Sunday.

Details, as usual, can be found on our boating event calendar.

Wherever you are in the world, enjoy your boating activities and please boat safely!
