We are now in July and boating season is in full swing! Once again, we’ve rounded up the most popular boating activities in and around the country for this month. Have a great long weekend and, as always, if we’ve missed any of your favorite events, be sure to let us know in the comments.

Watch as pro wakeboarders perform spectacular tricks and stunts on 160' landing pool. Unlike on-the-water competitions where the riders are 100 feet away on the lake, this is up-in-your-face action with riders blasting 20-ft airs off the kicker right on the show floor.

Plan ahead… There are a lot of choices. Allow enough time to explore many different types of boats, and several different brands within each category… This is a big investment that will change your life.

It just may be true that there's never been a better time to own a boat. While that statement may seem to fly in the face of some trying economic times these days, the very opportunity to experience the sense of freedom that a boat gives you and your family and the chance to focus your excitement on pursuing and catching fish may prove an invaluable remedy for the woes of our workaday world right now.

It’s not off-season for boaters—It’s planning season!
What can boaters do to help them through the long wait for the next boating season? If your boat comes out of the water shortly after Labor Day, there are many things you can do to get through the long six months before you see your boat again. Planning now for next season can ensure you’re ready to get out on the water as soon as next year’s boating season begins.

There’s no better time than the present to encourage enthusiasm over life on the water. From watersports, fishing and boat camping, to towable toys and swimming in your favorite local cove, the boat is just the beginning—boating is a lifelong, family tradition.
