Hartford and a Dozen More Boat Shows

Expanded Connecticut event is among several boat shows around the country this weekend...

We're lucky to have two relatively good sized boat shows right in our own back yard each year, and one of them is this weekend in Hartford, Connecticut. If you are local, we encourage you to visit the Hartford Boat Show (and our friends at the Boat Name Gear booth) all weekend for a chance to win some free shirts and hats with your boat name on them.

Read on after the photo for more about Hartford and this weekend's dozen other boat shows around the world...

  1. It's great to get out to a boat show -- even if you have a boat and are happy with it. In addition to the new boats, there are lots of new systems, boating products and techniques to learn about.
