[C320-list] Annapolis Boat Show

[David Nolte]

Here is a link to Annapolis area hotels:

The prices correlate with proximity to Annapolis and "upscale" vs. not.

I would advise moving quickly on a room, the ones close to town fill up well in advance for the show.

Wherever you stay, unless you have a friend in Annapolis with an extra parking spot, you should plan to drive to the Navy Marine Corp Stadium to park and take the shuttle buses into the show. It works pretty well. The only wrinkle this year is that Navy has a home game on the Saturday of the show. There will be an alternate parking site but the show has not worked out where yet for this year.

If you (or Karl or anyone) makes it, stop by land booth AB14 & say Hi.

Good luck!
