OC boat show another victim of coronavirus

The annual Seaside Boat Show has become the latest victim of covid-19, as its sponsor, the Ocean City-Berlin Optimist Club, announced Sunday that the February event will not be held this year. 

“The key thing is the safety of our exhibitors, the safety of our visitors and the safety of those who work the show,” Boat Show Co-Chairman Charlie Dorman said. 

The show, which has warmed this one weekend in the dead of winter for the past 38 years, routinely draws thousands of boat buyers and boating enthusiasts to the Ocean City convention center on 40th Street. Organizers’ estimate of last year’s crowd was about 16,000.

  1. Damn Democrats! Now responsible for the Boat Show being cancelled. Should have followed Trump’s lead and disavowed the coronavirus!

  2. No discussions about xmas…midnight mass OR New Years Eve yet? Cmon, revenue generators locally and nationally???? 4-5 weeks away.

    Waiting is not an option. There is no miracle to come. Embrace the continued suck…at least until the fall of 2021.
