On February 9th to the 11th anyone looking for a boat or enjoy boating, trudged through the winter weather to attend the 2018 Flathead Valley Boat Show! Upon arrival, the showcases offered by dealerships and their beautiful boats did not disappoint. With 9 dealerships in attendance, there were many good deals and a healthy competition was evident. The relaxed setting made it easy for the salespeople to get in their environment and help direct any potential boater to the boat of their dreams. With the dealerships under one roof, it made it convenient for the buyer to take a look at  side by side comparisons without the hassle of traveling all around just to see the visual difference.

The Flathead Valley Boat Show isn't just a place for potential buyers, it was also a great way for those who already own a boat to come on down and visit their dealership to learn about the new happenings in the boating world! The Boat Show also housed vendors for clients looking for updated upholstery work or a new dock.

Not only is The Boat Show a great opportunity for the buyers, it is also family friendly! With food stationed in the center, fun giveaways and candy at all of the booths, it became a great bonding experience for the family! On Sunday, any kid who attended the Boat Show got a fun door prize bag full of awesome goodies. Also on Sunday, kids took full advantage of the talented face painter to add a little sparkle to the family outing!

The overall the experience is very successful. There are always plentiful excellent and insightful conversations with individuals that were very serious about being educated in making a smart buying decision. The turnout is always fantastic, and by the smile of all of the families who attend, it is definitely worth the trip.

Even though The Boat Show has ended, fear not because most dealers are still ready to help guide anyone to their perfect boat. Summer is just around the corner.
