Island
Home of the Floating Show!
Vancouver's historic Granville
Island is home to the Floating
Show, the perfect place to
admire and board the largest motor yachts and
sailboats at the 2018 Vancouver International
Boat Show. Fresh air, salt water and spectacular

Island a must-see highlight for show goers.
With stunning views and an eclectic mix of local
culture, brimming with unique shops, artists,
restaurants, and galleries, Granville Island is the
ideal venue to create an experience like no other.
The expansive dock area and wealth
of boating businesses at Granville Island
surround the show's extensive selection of the
biggest, newest and most innovative vessels
from top manufacturers such as Azimut, Tiara,
Prestige, Marquis, Sea Ray, Hanse, Hunter,
Catalina and more!
Tour the Royal Canadian Marine Search
and Rescue's (RCM-SAR) new Falkins Class
Type II Vessel - one of the newest and most

capable SAR vessels afloat. Or step aboard
the Bluewater Cruising Association's fully
equipped, offshore-ready boat and imagine
what it would be like to voyage to remote,
exotic islands and atolls, steeped in history
and rich in culture.

this breathtaking marina is just a brief shuttle
