For the first time the festival took place here in 1962. More than 300 000 visitors is the result that is not easily reachable even for the biggest and the most famous boat show.

The star of Fiera Internazionale Di Genova started to shine immediately after opening and its glitter is still as sparkling as in the first opening year. More than 50 years the exhibition taking place on the Mediterranean shore cannot leave anybody indifferent.

100 000 square meters on the water and more than 200 000 square meters on the land accommodate thousands of exhibits and expositions.

Big yachts and cruising ships as well as small boats, accessories and equipment are presented at this exhibition. In 2009 around 1.5 thousand companies that built yachts and create similar products were present on that exhibition.

Traditionally in the beginning of March the yachtsmen and the manufacturers of yachts are coming to Romania. Bucharest International Boat Show is considered as one of the most useful for exhibitors as well as for the visitors. As the country was in the Soviet part of Europe and had certain economical difficulties in 90-s the «age» of this show is rather small. But one should not underestimate the importance of the event for Romanian manufacturers as well as for companies form the other countries – neighboring as well as those that are located at the other part of the world. Thousands of people come to Bucharest at the time of the exhibition: hundreds of them are professionals, hundreds just try to increase their level at the multiple meetings and conferences.

At the boat show as well as at the other yacht exhibitions motor and sail boats of various type, size and created for the different purposes are presented. Predominantly exhibits represent personal (private) vehicles. This feature should be the main attractant for the visitors.

Visiting Bucharest International Boat Show is a great idea. You can treat yourself with some rest from your job and from your family without going too far. You have to book your place in advance as besides the boat show itself you would have to take care of hotel and train or plane tickets. You can take the whole family over. Even if your partner does not share your passion to boats, she would definitely enjoy walking through the streets of old Bucharest.

Mach is marked with several events that are very important for the potential boat owner. St. Louis Boat & Sportshow is among them. It is a festival that brings joy and happiness to the yachtsmen’s life thanks to the premiers and thought-through program for more than 60 years.

This show will be beloved not only by yachtsmen. St. Louis itself is situated far from the oceans at the shoreline of river Missouri, and the highest attention here is paid to the boats that are dedicated to be used at inland waters such as lakes and rivers. Of course the manufacturers of the large boats and equipment for them come here as well (massively) along with those who produce the inventory for any water sport existing. But for those who live far from the seashore and do not have to leave for a long time this show has a lot to suggest.

First of al, it is a chance to look at the novelties of yacht industry. Not only yachts and boats, but also electronic systems, security systems and accessories. Secondly, the chance to choose and buy tackling for fishing and equipment for hunting as their manufacturers are represented at the show as well. Thirdly, one can get new experience and new skills while visiting seminars and master classes.
