The Pacific Northwest Boating Season Kicks off with Boats Afloat Show April 25-28

Article Posted Apr 03, 2024

The Boats Afloat Show is recognized as the largest floating boat show in the Pacific Northwest. It’s the destination to explore, dream, and discover. The show will be spotlighting more than 125 impressive motor yachts, a variety of sailboat offerings, high-end cruisers ideal for Northwest waters, high-performance craft, rugged fishing models and much more. From the show's location on the South Shore of Lake Union, you’ll enjoy stunning city views while you tour boats of all sizes and styles, experience the latest in boating technology, and enjoy a full line-up of events, free seminars, live music, food and drinks, weekend kids’ activities, and more!

Jeff Brown Yachts will have a selection of models from Axopar, and Sirena Yachts on display in the water. “We’re really excited to share a closer look at some of the hottest marine brands in the world right now,” says Tommy Casias of Jeff Brown Yachts. “Both Axopar and Sirena have been showered with accolades and awards from the industry's most import observers. You’ll have a chance to go below decks on the stunning Sirena 58. The thoughtful blend of the design and performance from the drawing board of Naval architect, Germán Frers, has produced a yacht that brings together unmatched interior volume with a hull that can provide impressive speed when needed, or efficient cruising and exceptional range.”

“The show is a great kick-off to the boating season, here in the Pacific Northwest,” Coleman Rogers explains. “The sun is beginning to peak out, and folks are excited for the chance to get on the water and learn more about the boats they’ve been dreaming about. The show is the perfect opportunity for us to share more about the all-weather, all-season models from Axopar. Their Scandinavian roots are well suited for the adventurous lifestyle so many in our part of the world are looking to enjoy. We have models ranging in size from 22’ to 45’, with a dozen ways to customize your boat.”

Tommy and Coleman from our Seattle office will also be sharing news about Jeff Brown Yachts' upcoming Axopar/BRABUS Pacific Northwest Adventure. Set for June 17-21, Tommy and Coleman will be leading a group of Axopar owners as we explore the cruising grounds of the Salish Sea—the collective waters of the Puget Sound, Strait of Juan de Fuca, and Strait of Georgia. Our ultimate destination is the West Coast Wilderness Lodge, on British Columbia’s Sunshine Coast. We’re looking forward to a great adventure, with the chance to discover new places, meet new friends, and create lasting memories. There’s limited room, so register early to secure your spot, jeffbrownyachts.com/events/pacific-northwest-adventure
