The 52nd annual Toronto International Boat Show is starting today in the Direct Energy Centre, Exhibition Place, at 100 Princes Boulevard in Toronto. It's going to last more than a week, until next Sunday, January 17th.

Hundreds of exhibitors and more than thousand boats of all types are ready for visitors. As for specific attractions, waterskiing dog, boating seminars, build-a-boat contest for kids or "the lake", the biggest indoor recreational boating venue in the world certainly are not missing this year.

According to the show manager, Cynthia Hare "there is no other boating event in Canada that gives new and experienced boaters the opportunity to shop the best and biggest selection of boats and accessories while allowing them to experience all the fun that the boating lifestyle has to offer.”

Nice to have a show like this right here in Toronto. Must be interesting to visit - even for families with kids. If you are interested in water activities or just curious, you have more than a week to check it out and learn something new about boats or enjoy your free boat ride at "the Lake".
