For immediate release | March 19, 2026 | Grasonville, MD – The Bay Bridge Boat Show returns April 17-19 to Safe Harbor Narrows Point in Grasonville, Maryland, bringing together some of the region’s leading powerboat dealers and the newest boats for the season ahead. With models on display both in water and on land, the spring show offers attendees a chance to step aboard and explore the latest options for getting out on the water.
For many attendees, the show is about more than just seeing the boats. It is an opportunity to build relationships with the dealers who will support them throughout their boating life. Buyers come to compare options, discuss future upgrades and trade-ins, and connect with the professionals who will guide them through each stage of ownership. Those same dealers help visitors understand how different boats fit their plans on the water while navigating the practical side of ownership, including financing, service, and storage.
“Our dealers are the backbone of the Bay Bridge Boat Show,” said Sheila Jones, General Manager of the Annapolis Boat Shows. “They’re here to share their experience, answer questions, and help each attendee imagine their next day on the water. For many, meeting a dealer at the show is the start of a relationship that lasts for years.”
Throughout the show, attendees can move from dock to dock and through the land displays to explore the latest center consoles, dual consoles, and family-friendly runabouts designed for days on the water.
