NEW!!!
Once again, the Newport International Boat Show has selected the International Yacht Restoration School as its nonprofit beneficiary. IYRS is a world-class accredited school training the next generation of marine trades professionals and leaders. But for many passionate and would-be professionals, the cost of their schooling is beyond their reach. You (and your company) can help by supporting the scholarship fund with a cash gift or an in-kind donation of equipment, tools, or supplies. A contribution of any amount is welcome.

Show your support by attending the Newport International Boat Show Exhibitor Party on Friday evening from 6 – 8 pm at Newport Harbor Hotel and Marina and please make a donation. Supporting the Joyce Selig Memorial Scholarship Fund ensures that the most passionate and talented future craftsmen and technicians can pursue careers in the marine trades.

To find out more about how you and your company can help, visit IYRS’ Newport campus while in town (only ¼ mile south of the Boat Show on Lower Thames Street), or go to www.iyrs.org. And thanks in advance for helping a future marine trades professional!

Largest In-Water Show in the Northeast is the Perfect Balance of Power and Sail
Our exhibitors and attendees find it convenient and cost effective to concentrate on Newport rather than a "sailing only" or "powerboat only" show. No other boat show offers such efficiency and balance.

New Boats and Products Make their Debut in Newport. If it's New, It Will Be Here.
Our "Newport for New Products™" program showcases new products by featuring them in our advertising, marketing and PR campaigns. Consumers know that Newport is the place to see, touch, test, inspect and BUY new products every year. Last year over 65 new boats and hundreds of marine related accessories made their debut in Newport. Click here for more information on the Newport for NEW Products program.
