37th Newport Boat Show at Lido Marina Village

Sunseeker Yachts

The 37th annual Newport Boat Show was held last weekend at the Lido Marina Village in Newport Beach. This is always a fun event to come out and view and tour the beautiful yachts. For the most part, it is possible to board and tour the beautiful yachts. Before beginning our tour of the Newport Beach boat show, we had a delicious lunch at the Lido Deck restaurant which is located on Via Oporto in Lido Marina Village.

There were over 300 boats at the boat show this year, and we were able to view some amazing yachts.

This was a site that you do not see too often, the Newport Harbor Patrol was racing towards the boat show area, and actually came and docked the boat. Apparently, two people fell off one of the ramps to get on the boat, and unfortunately I believe one of the people were taken to the hospital.

And another salesman told me that there was some other action at the boat show. Apparently, a swarm of bees came and landed and surrounded one of the boats on display. The section had to closed off to spectators so that no one would  get stung. The salesman told me that they got the bees under control with a shop vac! Glad I missed that! Although – I did see a few stragglers hanging around.

And someone brought their regal little dog who posed for me,

And this last vessel, although I do not think that it was officially in the boat show is kind of unique. Not sure about the power source for this boat, or if it just floats . . . kind of reminds me of pac man – think I’ll name it Blinky!

So that was the adventure at the boat show. If I can answer any questions about Newport Beach real estate, please contact me.
