New Brunswick’s largest boat show sets sail this spring! The 2017 edition of the Moncton Boat Show takes place March 31st through April 2nd at the Moncton Coliseum. It will once again be co-located with the New Brunswick Sportsmen’s Show and the Dieppe Fly Fishing Forum, offering visitors three great events for one low price!

At the show, visitors will find fishing boats, cruisers, runabouts, inflatables, personal watercraft and so much more – from 13 of the region’s leading dealers.

“This show lets visitors discover all the ways they could be spending time on the region’s many waterways,” said Scott Sprague, Show Manager. “There’s no better way to shop for a new boat. Visitors can connect with dealers from throughout Atlantic Canada, compare makes and models, secure financing and insurance, and check out tons of boating accessories.”

Show visitors are also encouraged to keep an eye out for exclusive specials and dealer features; plus, they can fill out a ballot at the show for their chance to win a Rave Sports “Stoked” Two Ryder Towable, featuring heavy duty construction, 10 handles and dual quick connect tow points for multiple riding styles, courtesy of Stright-MacKay. This prize has a retail value of $400.00.
