First Sail Workshop allows first time sailors to learn the basics, and experience the joy of sailing in a 45-minute classroom session at the National Sailing Hall of Fame, immediately followed by 90 minutes on the water with SailTime and American Sailing Association instructors. The Cruisers University curriculum addresses a complete range of cruising topics for all levels and experience to help you prepare to live aboard a boat and begin your boating adventures with confidence.
Deals: The time is now! Fear not the cost of winter storage, with summer right around the corner, you’ll be able to launch your boat and enjoy the first good boating weekends of the season. Since The new model year begins each summer, spring is a great time to buy your new boat– low prices and packaging, and monthly financing options are all around. Related services such as boating clubs, charter companies, insurance firms, and lending institutions are represented at the show as well. Shop the latest in navigational equipment, high-tech electronics, inflatables, boating accessories, clothing, and gear. Lucky sailors will win prizes generously donated by our sponsors and exhibitors.

Annapolis is a charming seaport town where you can celebrate the end of winter and the opening of the sailing year with the whole family. See boats of all sizes in the water and know that you soon will be there too! Cheer from ashore and watch regional high school teams compete in the Annapolis Annual Junior Keelboat Regatta.
