Come One, Come All to the DFW Boat Expo

It is never too early to think about the next boating season! Boating is not just an activity or a hobby, it is a lifestyle. If you have been dreaming about adding boating to your family’s life, now is the perfect time to start looking at boats. The prices are down and last year’s models are still available for a limited time. The DFW Boat Expo will be open from February 5th-14th. What a perfect Valentine’s Day gift!

Why You Should Go

There are 42 lakes and reservoirs available within 100 miles of Dallas. This doesn’t even include the hundreds of other boating areas outside of this small radius. Boating is an amazing activity to do with your family no matter what age you are. It is exciting to explore, enjoy the day in the sun, soak up the summer weather and even try out some water sports. There will also be many vendor booths at the DFW Boat Expo with different water sports gear! Why travel by car when you can travel by boat? Take some time to check out the coastal cities or different areas on the lake that you can stop and have lunch. It is an adventure waiting to happen.
