Each week we let you know about all the nautical events happening so that if you can't get out on the water, you can still be around boats. This weekend's round-up includes boat shows, regattas, festivals and more in places like Chicago, New York, North Carolina, Montreal, Maine, and, um, Idaho. Yes, Idaho. Let's take a look...
This Weekend's Best Bets
Montreal Classic Boat Festival
This is a big event in the charming Old Port in Montreal, Canada. More than just an antique boat show, this event features nautical music, workshops, movies and more.
Chicago Air and Water Show
Last week Chicago hosted A Taste of Tall Ships, and this weekend it's the Chicago Air and Water Show. This event is best viewed from the water according to our friends in Chicago.
