The Savannah Boat Show, now in its 21st anniversary, is located on Hutchinson Island, Georgia, overlooking the Savannah River and on the South Carolina border.  This show’s strength is its location, two hours north of Jacksonville, Florida, and two hours south of Charleston, South Carolina providing a natural magnet for attracting boating enthusiasts and exhibiting companies from all three states and beyond.  The show primarily showcases powerboats.  Savannah, like Charleston, is on the coast, which makes it a strong salt water fishing location.  Each year, fishing experts are on-hand for seminars and demonstrations.  The show also features boats overlooking the Savannah River and other maritime displays and exhibits.  In its history, the show has held shag contests, seafood festivals, live music and other family entertainment.  It’s one of the few winter boat shows in the country fortunate enough to have a water-front view.  Whether it’s sunny or inclement weather, there is something interesting for everyone at the Savannah Boat Show.
