Why Visit a Boat Show?

The Halifax International Boat Show is the largest boat show in Eastern Canada. Exhibited boats range in size from 6' to over 30' and include runabouts, cruisers, motor yachts, sail boats, sailing dinghies, pontoon boats, bass boats, inflatables, RIBS, canoes, kayaks, and personal water craft.

There are exhibits of marine equipment, marine engines, diesel, gas, outboard and inboard, of marine electronics and marine accessories, of docks and dock builders. The show is a place for boaters to SHOP! Marine chandleries bring their stores to this show, and there are great deals as well as all the latest gear backed up by product manufacturers and distributors. The Show is a great time to buy a boat as Dealers and Manufacturers offer great show specials.


Discover Boating Center

Drop by the Discover Boating Centre and
find out why life is better with a boat!

The purpose of the Discover Boating Centre is simple – to help people become boaters. No matter what your level of involvement in boating, there is something for everyone to see, learn and enjoy. If you are planning to buy your first boat, you can speak to our expert staff to learn about different boat types and what boat is right for you and your family. Or, if you have been boating for some time, you may be looking for information on moving up in size, buying new for the first time after buying pre-owned in the past or perhaps getting into a new type of boating altogether. Want to know about boating courses, safety information, boat financing? All your boating questions can be answered at the Discover Boating Centre. Click here for Discover Boating workshops
