The biggest event on the Brisbane boating calendar is only one day away, setting sail this Thursday August 25th at the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre. Whether your passion is sailing, fishing, swimwear, cooking or water-skiing the iconic show has been transformed this year offering something for those who enjoy the water from all walks of life.

The line-up includes a new look ‘Boating and Fishing Stage’ featuring the much anticipated return of sailing to the show with guest speakers European Championship gold medal winners Angus Galloway and Alex Gough - as well as fishing talks, boating safety and waterways advice. Not forgetting the ladies, this year’s show will also feature a nautical fashion and swimwear parade with a high profile line-up of models strutting their stuff in the latest Whitesands Australia collection, on Saturday and Sunday.

The always popular Kids Marine Zone will also return this year with plaster mould painting, rock climbing and professional fishing lessons. So start planning your weekend of boating bedlam now and get your hands on all the latest in luxury boating, water sports, fishing and accessories.
