The Marine Trades Association of Maryland (MTAM), in partnership with Visit Annapolis & Anne Arundel County, The Annapolis Boat Shows, Visit Maryland and the Symmetry Agency, will present the inaugural Boat Maryland Week April 26 to May 5 in Annapolis.
A range of events are incorporated into the larger 10-day Boat Maryland Week. Visitors and boaters can experience one of the world’s largest in-water sailboat shows during the annual Annapolis Spring Sailboat Show (April 26-28) at City Dock; the Annapolis NOOD Regattas (May 3-5), a racing series founded by the editors of Sailing World in 1988 and a maritime-themed take on one of the city’s favorite art festival series, the First Sunday Arts Festival (May 5). MTAM attributes the economic impact of boating in Maryland to be approximately $2.4 billion statewide.
