Yacht Show to Kickoff Opening Year at National Harbor
United States Yacht Shows is proud to announce the premier showcase for
large luxury yachts, The Yacht Show at National
Harbor, June 5-8, 2008. This event will be a part of the
much-anticipated grand opening of the $2-billion, 300-acre National Harbor
resort community.
National Harbor is a $2 billion development set along 1 ¼ mile panoramic
stretch of the Potomac River in Prince George's County, Maryland. The
cornerstone of the development is the new Gaylord National Resort and
Convention Center, the largest non-gaming hotel and convention center on the
Eastern Seaboard.
This unique show will feature new, brokered and charter yachts of 50 feet or
more LOA on display in the water at the new marina facility at National
Harbor. This prestigious show is expected to draw yacht builders from
throughout the world, in addition to large yachts on their way to the
Northeast and Europe from the Caribbean.
Exhibitors will include manufacturers of engines, electronics, propulsion
systems, interior designers, yacht designers and companies providing
maintenance, provisioning, and much more. A unique section will
provide a boutique of opulent personal items for the discriminating yachting
lady and gentleman. Tours of adjacent historic Alexandria will be
available as an option.
"Never before has there been a show with such an exclusive gathering of
mega-yachts," says Ed Hartman, President of United States Yacht Shows, Inc.
