If you’re down in the Southern part of the state this weekend, you might want to head over to the Newport International Boat Show. This annual event features new sailboats and powerboats, and thousands of products and services from both domestic and international exhibitors. This show is the biggest selection of boats and boating products in the Northeast and will cover over 13 acres along America’s Cup Avenue in Newport. 
Sail for Pride is the show’s official Charitable Partner this year. Founded in 2001 in response to the horrific attack on 9/11, the group has since raised money for victims and their families plus over a dozen charities. In addition to the boats, you can go to topical lectures on subjects like Cost Control While you Cruise. And if you’re looking for something to do in the evening, you might want to hit the Latitudes & Attitudes Cruisers Party, which provides the perfect way to meet others with your same passion for boating. More information can be obtained at the Newport International Boat Show website.
