This
summer's 37th Annual
Lake Winnipesaukee Antique & Classic Boat Show at the
Meredith public docks will be another huge gathering of
over 80 beautiful antique and
classic wooden boats,
on display all day
long in a judged competition. This is quite a sight to behold, with all
the vintage boats and large crowds. For a special
treat, get to the docks early on Saturday morning to watch and
listen as the vintage boats arrive under their
own power. The sights and sounds will be
magnificent, and to get an idea of the magnitude of this gathering
of wooden boats, please take a moment to view our photo album from
last year's Lake
Winnipesaukee Antique & Classic Boat Show.
