Getting Ready for the Boat Show

Look For Our Chaparral Tent

The Michigan City In-Water Boat Show gets underway this Thursday … boat show dates are Thursday thru Friday August 23 thru 26 … and Pier 33 is set-up and ready to go.

This year’s Pier 33 display will feature thirteen boats on shore, from Chaparral, Scout and Pursuit.

We began transporting boats to a staging area in Michigan City last Friday. With the cooperation of Ken Alvey of LEMTA and his boat show staff, Pier 33 was able to get access to the show site Monday morning to start placing the boats.

An on-shore display of this size is quite a puzzle to put together and the Pier 33 move-in crew did an outstanding job. With just a few finishing touches to go, the boats are now set. Boat show-goers will find Pier 33’s display alongside The Water’s Edge restaurant and all boats have been arranged for easy boarding.

The show itself is an interesting but temporary creation, in Trail Creek with temporary docks and on-shore in the area at Washington Park surrounding the old yacht club building (now The Water’s Edge) and the U.S.C.G station. This is a fun opportunity for boaters to get together and for boaters-to-be to view a wide variety of boating possibilities.

Just A Few
