New boat show debuts in Miami
A new boat show is moving into the Miami Marine Stadium in Miami, Florida, this spring.
The first edition of the SoFlo Boat Show takes place from May 19-21, 2023, at the venue recently vacated by the Miami International Boat Show.
In addition to showcasing a variety of vessels, both on land and in water, one of the features of the show will be the sea trial dock for those looking to test the featured boats on the water. Boat manufacturers already confirmed to participate include Yellowfin, Invincible, SeaVee, Boston Whaler, Pursuit, Albemarle, Tiara, Seahunter, Pathfinder, Blackfin, Hurricane, Cobia and Sea Hunt. The show will also feature boating parts and accessories across engines, electronics, fishing equipment, diving gear, and more.
Organisers are hoping to boost sales by offering 100 gallons of Shoreline marine fuel to anyone who buys a boat during the show, and an opportunity to win an Icon golf cart to anyone who buys a SoFlo Boat Show ticket.
The SoFlo Boat Show will also feature seminars and workshops led by industry experts, as well as live music, food, and family-friendly activities.
“We are thrilled to launch the SoFlo Boat Show, the premiere boating lifestyle event in Miami that celebrates our shared passion for the nautical way of life,” says Tony Albelo, CEO of organisers EngageLive. “Miami Marine Stadium is the perfect venue to host this spectacular showcase, and we cannot wait to welcome boating fans to join us for this experience.”
