It’s exciting to see the growth of the boat show, the return of familiar faces, and new boating fans,” Berryman noted. “We have more boats and accessories than ever, making the 2015 show the ideal event for anyone considering buying a boat, whether they’re beginning boaters or have weathered their fair share of waves. This is a great time to leave the chills of winter behind and start thinking of enjoying the summer sun on the water.”
