2012 Chicago In Water Boat Show-gctid390087

[Guest Close Guest]

First ever in water show in Chicago. Held at the brand new 31st Street Harbor, just south of downtown next to McCormack Place and near Soldier Field.

It was a great show with a really good showing. The weather was perfect, hot and sunny.

I even took a close quarter docking class, Good to polish your skills.

We loved it!

How crowded was it???

Hope the first is followed by many more in future summers!!!

Not too crowded on Friday, I'm sure the weekend will be busy. The FOTF crew was heading down today, I hope they have a great time.

It was a great show, but we still need the January show...gotta have a smell of fresh fiberglass fix in the winter

Thanks for the pics. I was wondering if the water show would be a hit or not. The boat dealers in Peoria have tried to do this except the weather never did help.Hope it catches on.
