Whether you trailer your boat to new inland lake destinations or have a boat large enough to cruise from port to port along the Great Lakes coast, the abundance of water in and around Michigan will keep you occupied and delighted summer after summer.

Boating World has teamed up with the Discover Boating & Fishing Tour to bring you the newest concept in boat-buying.
First, the Discover Boating & Fishing Tour will visit the locations below. Then, a couple of weeks later, the Boating World Test Drive Tour will hit the same area. Anyone who has expressed an interest in boating during the first stop will then get a chance to test drive multiple brands, receive hands-on instruction and develop a closer relationship with boating.

There‘s no better way to get out on the water and enjoy some of Washington’s “good news” on salmon fishing than the Northwest Salmon Derby Series. Directed by the Northwest Marine Trade Association, and presented by Traveler’s Insurance, the 2008 Derby Series features 14 derbies held throughout Washington and Oregon beginning in February and running through September. For the second year in a row, the Derby Series will give away two boats at the conclusion of the derbies in September at Edmonds.
