2014 Progressive Insurance New York Boat Show

Kick off the New Year with a resolution to spend more time on the water at the 2014 Progressive Insurance New York Boat Show.

Starting on New Year's Day, the world’s first and longest running boat show will welcome thousands of visitors to the Javits Center in New York City for five days of summer dreaming and fun for the whole family. Lifelong boating enthusiasts and novices alike can shop, compare and find competitive deals on everything from luxury motor yachts and sport fishers to performance boats, sailboats, and thousands of marine accessories.

 Plus, attendees will have the chance to meet Captain Dave Carraro from National Geographic’s Wicked Tuna, see Swampmaster Jeff Quattrocchi catch an 8-foot, 200-pound alligator with his bare hands, get expert advice and skills training at the show’s interactive boating workshops, and more.
