Boat Show Move-In Day - Chicago Boat Show

We’re in!

Monday January 9 was Pier 33’s assigned “Move-In” day for the 2012 Progressive Insurance Chicago Boat, Sports & RV  Show.

This was an unusual move-in for us – we’re not used to dry roads and clear skies in January. Our crew got shuttled a few boats over to the show staging yard over the weekend and then we convoyed over early Monday morning.

If you haven’t ever watched a boat show or other type of trade show come together, it can look a little discombobulated while “under construction”. However, with the help of a great crane crew and well-organized schedule provided by the NMMA, we were able to get all of our carpet, boats and equipment into place very nicely.

We do have a few finishing touches to apply between now and show opening (Thursday 2 PM, January 12), but the show is already looking very good. Have a look at our video, below, for a sneak peek at Pier 33's boat show display featuring new boats from Scout and Pursuit.

When you get to the show, be sure to look for “Big Blue” flying above the Pier 33 display, alongside marker balloons for Scout and Pursuit.

We’re looking forward to the start of the show. See you there.
