The Seattle Boat Show

January 25, 2009 by Rhonda Porter 2 Comments

Yesterday, my husband and I went to The Seattle Boat Show which is taking place right now at Qwest Field Event Center. I'm not a boater. In fact, I don't even swim. I had fun checking out the sea of boats from yachts to motorized kayaks and the Junk Raft…it's pretty amazing.

Booth after booth of gadgets and classic tradeshow salespeople offering you an "almost free cookie" if you'll just stop by to hear their pitch (no thanks). I can't help but wonder how our economy is impacting this market…especially compared to real estate?

The Seattle Boat Show runs through Sunday, February 1, 2009. In addition to the indoor event, South Lake Union has a "floating" show.

Hi Rhonda,

I went to the boat show, too, and was surprised as to how many people were there. The show was hopping.
