Boats Afloat Show 2022
The West Coast's largest floating boat show is pleased to announce two shows at Lake Union Piers, formerly known as Chandler's Cove in Seattle! Produced by the Northwest Yacht Brokers Association (NYBA), the two 4-day Boats Afloat Shows will be presented in April and September; the perfect time of year to walk the docks and consider your next boating adventure!
What to expect
Visitors to the shows can expect to see both power and sail, used and new, and boats that are available for charter. Yacht brokers with the esteemed Certified Professional Yacht Broker (CPYB) credentials will be set up to answer questions and explore boat options. Shoreside exhibitors will also be set up to present useful boat accessories. All this combined with live music, batch cocktail and chef demos, a 90' floating bar and restaurant - will make for a super fun and memorable day this Spring!
