 The Boating Ontario Trade Show allows attendees to see products in person, establish what’s trending in the marketplace and get comprehensive product information in one contained location. 

 New this year, we are offering Training Sessions specifically directed at office managers and service department staff within the Recreational Marine Industry. Each session is four hours long and includes lunch and access to the Boating Ontario Trade Show. (Tuesday December 1, 2015; $95 per person)
