DC boat show is back, this time at National Harbor

There hasn’t been a boat show in D.C. for years. Falling attendance led to the last D.C. Boat Show at the Washington Convention Center in 2008. The inaugural D.C. Boat Show at National Harbor is May 5 through May 7 and promises a much bigger boat show than a convention center could accommodate. “We’ll have probably over 100 boats in the water, and another 200 or so on land — power and sail, new and high-quality brokerage,” said D.C. Boat Show co-owner Kelly Stewart, who has been involved in boat show marketing in Maryland for nearly two decades.
