Port
St. Lucie, FL – The St. Lucie County Boat Show returns
to Tradition Field in Port St. Lucie for its third year on
April 20, 21 and 22. This year’s show will once again
feature “Boats & Bats,” showcasing two of
America’s favorite pastimes – boating and baseball.
An exciting new addition to this year’s show will be
the nautical flea market featuring pre-owned boats and everything
from fishing equipment to props and over-stocked products
for the marine industry.
“When you combine the new nautical flea market with
our traditional local and regional exhibitors that will be
featuring new boats up to 35 feet in length, you have something
to suit every taste and budget” said Rick Allen of AllSports
Productions, producer of the St. Lucie County and Stuart Boat
Shows.
The St. Lucie County Boat Show offers an unmatched day of
fun for the whole family with new and pre-owned boats on display,
nautical equipment, seminars, and festive foods, plus an evening
of baseball, all for one low price. The $5 admission price
to the boat show on Friday or Saturday includes tickets to
that evening’s St. Lucie Mets and Daytona Cubs baseball
game, compliments of the St. Lucie County Boat Show’s
exhibitors.
A number of fishing seminars will be held throughout the weekend.
Anchor’s Aweigh will be sponsoring local fishing guides
who will share their expertise with show attendees at no charge.
A
free rod and reel will be given to the first 100 kids (under
12, when accompanied by an adult), attending the “Teach
a Kid to Fish” seminar at 1:30 p.m. on Saturday, April
21.
Exhibits at the St. Lucie County Boat Show will feature the
latest models of weekend cruisers, sport fishing boats, center
consoles, high-performance boats, bass boats, skiffs and personal
watercraft. Financing and insurance specialists, marine and
fishing equipment, boatlifts, trailers, jewelry and nautical
clothing also will be featured at the show. For the first
time, a nautical flea market will offer exhibitors the opportunity
to sell pre-owned boats, discontinued and over-stocked merchandise,
used equipment, and more.
On-site
parking is free and admission to the show is only $5 dollars
with children under 12 free. Paid admission to Friday or Saturday’s
boat show will include tickets for the entire family to that
night’s baseball game. The St. Lucie County Boat Show
is conveniently located at Tradition Field, 525 NW Peacock
Blvd. in Port St. Lucie, just off I-95. Show hours are 10:00
a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 10:00 a.m. to 4:00
p.m. on Sunday. Game times start at 7:00 p.m. on Friday and
6:00 p.m. on Saturday.
Vera
Locke, executive director of the Marine Industries Association
of the Treasure Coast, noted that most boat owners in the
state keep their boats on trailers – an audience to
which this show is targeted. “Boating and fishing are
a great way for parents to spend quality time with their children,”
she said. “And what could be better than combining a
day at the St. Lucie County Boat Show with a night of baseball?"
The St. Lucie County Boat Show is produced, managed, and sponsored
by AllSports Productions, Inc., and is owned by the Marine
Industries Association of the Treasure Coast. For show information,
