The big Seattle Boat Show is underway, and we’d love to see you here!
For 77 years, the Seattle Boat Show has been helping Pacific Northwest boaters find the boats of their dreams, and outfit them splendidly for the waters of the Salish Sea and beyond. The 2024 installment (Feb. 2-10) is off to a terrific start, and the 48° North crew will be here for all nine days of the big event. Our booth is in the West Hall of the indoor show at the Lumen Field Event Center — Concourse 2213.
Stop by to pick up the new February issue that hit the streets this week, a hard copy of the SARC, or some of the back issues from the past year. We will also be selling subscriptions and registrations to the 48° North Cruising Rally.
But as we like to say, we have the best job at the boat show because, while we do sell a few things here, we’re mainly here to give away and tell folks about our primary products — 48° North content in print and digital.
We hope to see many of you here, checking out the latest boats and technology, and taking advantage of this chance to commune with so many others who share a passion for the water-borne lifestyle in the Pacific Northwest.
