Miami Boat Show Cancelled

[menzies]

Just received an email with the announcement.

Dear Paul,
We have made the difficult decision to cancel the 2021 Progressive® Insurance Miami International Boat Show, which was scheduled from February 11–15, 2021. The health and safety of our guests, exhibitors and employees is of the utmost importance, and following a thorough analysis regarding the feasibility of the show, this is the most prudent course of action.

The Progressive Insurance Miami International Boat Show will return to Miami February 17–21, 2022 — look forward to welcoming you back!
In the meantime, as you begin planning your next boating adventure, boat show exhibitor contact information is featured on our website for reference year-round.

What a drag. I feel for all the vendors, support staff and hospitality folks who this directly impacts. I have tried to do my part by supporting small business (even though it might cost me a few bucks more) tipping 20% on take out and while trying to keep everyone safe. Hopefully we can start to see the situation change in the coming months.
