Progressive® Insurance San Francisco Boat Show®

Cancelled for 2016 Following Weather-Related Postponement

 

January 1, 2016



SAN FRANCISCO – The Progressive® Insurance San Francisco Boat Show® announced today that following its initial El Nino weather-related postponement, the show will not be rescheduled to April as originally hoped, and as a result, has been cancelled for 2016.

“Moving our show at the last minute, following the weather caused by El Niño for our original January dates, presented more of a challenge for our exhibitors and our logistics team than we anticipated. As a result, we wouldn’t be able to produce the kind of event our attendees or exhibitors have come to expect and without a top-notch product we decided not to move ahead with the boat show this year,” noted Dave Geoffroy, director of the San Francisco Boat Show. “We are certainly disappointed and apologize for the inconvenience this may cause. In the meantime, we will continue supporting the marine industry year-round in Northern California as we work together to ensure a thriving recreational boating community throughout the region.”

Anyone who purchased a ticket online pre-event, will be refunded. To have your ticket refunded, please contact Rosemary Stomp at rstomp@nmma.org.

Exhibitors will be fully refunded on their space. Exhibitors are encouraged to contact San Francisco Boat Show manager, Katharina Klanck, at kklanck@nmma.org with questions related to the show’s cancellation.
