Will you be at the 55th Annual Portland Boat Show this weekend? As one of the largest out-of-water boat shows west of the Mississippi River, this show is packed with boats, new and used, and the greatest deals of the season.

Portland may not be right on the ocean, but this Pacific Northwest city does have another claim to boating fame: it’s accessible to the Columbia River, the largest river in the region and the fourth largest in the United States. Whether you’re a power boater or would like to try some small watercraft adventuring on kayak or canoe, this river is truly a gem worth visiting.

And speaking of personal watercraft—if you’ve been in the market for a new water vehicle or toy to complement your Monterey, this year’s Portland Boat Show will feature an amphibious Quadski made by Gibbs Sports Amphibians. This ATV and Jet Ski combo is just one of the many ways you can experience the great outdoors… and cool off in the water right after!

If you’re interested in purchasing a new boat with us, or would just like some one-on-one chat about the process, we’ll have you covered at the Portland Boat Show. Meet up with our dealer, Northwest Boat Center, while you’re at the show and get all your questions answered.
