I attended the Houston Boat Show on the last day of the show this year. I almost forgot about it.
I like going when there are not as many people because I get better photos of the boats without having a lot of other people in the picture.
The Boat Show has everything to do with boats that you could think of.
The first thing I saw when I walked in the doors were these very large and very expensive motors.
These days, boats are looking more and more cool.
I like seeing the control panel on the new boats. This looks like an expensive car.
There were so many boats to see this year.
Here’s the control panel for the boat above. Very cool.
They had a racing boat on display. It looks huge when viewed at this perspective.
Here’s the U.S. Customs and Border Protection boat.
And here are two Houston Police Jet Ski’s.
There was apparel on sale at the show.
You could also buy a new fishing rod.
I seem to like the darker color boats more than the white ones.
I like when they put the boats in this position.
This was a nice looking boat.
This boat had a video screen behind it playing someone skiing behind the boat as a simulation.
I like this boat design, but I’m not a fan of the color green on it.
This might have been one of the more expensive boats at the show.
Whereas this was probably one of the cheaper. This boat is for fishing and you have plenty of room to stand and cast your line off of the deck. Those open doors are where you can store the fish you catch.
There were boats everywhere. I always wonder how long it takes them to set all of the boats up and how long to get them out of the arena.
I like this boat. Very sporty.
I like this one more because of the black color.
Here’s another boat with that color green. It must be a popular color among boat owners or designers.
When the boats are in this position, you can see all of the seating room very easily.
There was a very large number of pontoon boats.
This boat looked very cool.
They were showing 4 wheelers and motorhomes also.
Here’s a view of some of the boats on display.
I hope you’ve enjoyed this look at the Houston Boat Show. The Auto Show is the next show that I’m attending.

Hi Paul! I enjoyed looking at your boat show photos 🙂 Imagine how many boat shows there must be going on in the world. I just attended the biggest one in Europe, in Dusseldorf Germany. It was lots of fun but so big that it was impossible to see everything in one day. If you like, you can check out my post about it at:

Cheers!
