Calling all boating enthusiasts! The Progressive Insurance Miami International Boat Show is back Feb. 11-15, 2016.

New this year, the Boat Show is taking place at the Miami Marine Stadium Park and Basin on the Rickenbacker Causeway. Near Key Biscayne and situated just a few miles from Downtown Miami, the new location is sure to be a great one and preparations have been underway for months. The Strictly Sail Miami portion of the show will take place at Miamarina at Bayside in Downtown.

The historic Miami Marine Stadium will provide a stunning backdrop and 180-degree views of Biscayne Bay. It’s the perfect place to board and browse thousands of new boats–from offshore racing vessels to sailboats to yachts. There will also be boating lessons, daily seminars and a chance to test the waters on stand-up paddleboards.
