The Annapolis sailboat show has more boats in the water than any other. It cleverly splits the motorboat show (happens the week before) with the sailboat show so the vendors stay but the boats all change over. It means there’s plenty to see and actually there are also many other boats on docks nearby that you can be taken to see. For example Blue Water Yachts didn’t have a boat there but they could take you to see a Hylas nearby which the new yachts are based on.
But of course the Annapolis sailboat show isn’t just about the boats! It’s full on party time for the whole 5 days with events running every night. We even went to a party in a chandlers!
So in this episode we have a look around a Garcia and hop aboard one of our patrons boats, a lovely passport 456. We will have a special extra video showing the whole tour and also looking at the amazing Passport 615 at the show.
There will be lots of extra videos showing what we’ve seen at the show, including a tour of an Outbound, an Oyster and our favourite the Hylas (would love to see a new Blue Water Yacht)
We also look around quite a few catamarans at the show with our friends Heidi and Franny who are looking to buy something in the 45-50 foot range. There will also be a special video showing more of the boats they looked at and the full tour of the amazing HH racing cat.
We get a few tech bits in too as we look at re-rigging Fair Isle and of course we spend time catching up with friends and meeting the other Youtube channels that went along ( there were more than 50 channels, quite a party!)
It was lovely to meet our Patrons there, we had a special meet up at the Quirk n Bach Pottery, a big thank you to Jeff & Cameron for hosting us there, Jeff organises all the YT channels at the show and did an incredible job.
