Ryan,
Welcome to Boat Buzz, it's good to have you with us.
The RDC Triangle Chapter, ACBS has the Lake Wheeler Show in September. RDC as in Raleigh - Duram - Chapel Hill. I'm sure there must be others close by, possibly some sponsored by the Blue Ridge Chapter and the Tidewater Chapter (no websites).

Georgetown, SC Wooden Boat Show
Ryan: there is a wonderful one-day show every October in Georgetown, SC. In water docks, boat building, etc. Main Street closed, good food and drink, etc. Georgetown is on the intracoastal waterway. I believe Beaufort, NC, has a show, too. How would you get your boat to a show from Durham?

Hi all,
Thanks Phil and Al for the plug for the RDC Triangle Chapter ACBS. Our show is relatively new at only 4 years old, and we only exhibit trailerable boats, either in-water or on-land. In addition to the Lake Norman and Smith Mountain Lake shows, both of which are excellent, you would have the opportunity to see some large cruisers at either the Georgetown Wooden Boat Show in SC (20 years running, held in October) or the N.C. Maritime Museum's 36th Annual Wooden Boat Show in Beaufort, NC held the first Saturday in May. Moore's Marine has opened a location in Beaufort (NC), so you might be able to see some large Trumpy yachts. Both Georgetown, SC and Beaufort, NC are well worth the trip and exhibit a wide variety of boats, from wooden surfboards to traditional working sail boats to steam launches, from antique and classic mahogany runabouts to contemporary wood construction of all types, to large cruisers (power and sail) as both are on the intracoastal waterway. They are absolutely wonderful boat shows.

Kevin,

This WIKI got my interest going-

Newbies may need some do's and don'ts from the locals.
