The Nanaimo Port Authority’s Floating Boat and Marine Trade Show is looking ship shape.

The eighth annual show takes place this weekend (June 1-3) at the Nanaimo Boat Basin.

The show has sold out exhibitor space again, attracting 32 major yacht brokers, manufacturers and marine suppliers.

“We’ve filled our space with new product again this year, a very good sign that this show provides the right products and mix for show attendees,” said David Mailloux, boat show manager. “After seven shows, participating brokers understand this market and cater to the needs of show attendees. We will be introducing a new B.C. invention and a unique camper boat, being shown in the B.C. show market for the first time.”

RCMP Coastal Watch, RCMP auxiliary, Nanaimo Power and Sail Squadron and Boat Smart Canada will be on hand so boaters can acquire, on site, the mandatory Boater Operator’s Certificate or register for more courses.
