Buying Boats in Atlantic City - Courtesy farm4.static.flickr.com

The weather can really play possum in Atlantic City. With chances of flurries it’s going to be partly cloudy, windy and sunny alternatively. Conditions remain mostly overcast. Add to this the minus four degrees centigrade temperatures! However not all the chill can dampen the enthusiasm for fun and game that the city is famous for.

Come weekend and you have people rushing in from far and near to be here. So whats new now besides the gaming and the dining. On offer of course is a full calendar of events with a variety of entertainment options for visitors to choose from. This weekend I am headed with my Greek shippy friend who is keen to visit the International Power Boat Show in Atlantic city.

Kristos loves his boats. And he does not want to miss the annual exposition of hundreds of power boats, luxury yachts and a marine market featuring nautical gifts and also apparel. The event is being hosted by The Atlantic City Convention Center in the first week of February.

People are going to be here I am told for the boats and gear. I will of course be there for the fun of it all. One day - maybe just one day I might own a boat too. Who knows? Just so long as I keep trying my luck at the many gaming zones here!

No but seriously in the mean time checking out green boating zones would be just the sort of thing to begin with. But of course I will have a whale of a time at the Kids’ Cove and the Miss GEICO racing boat. Yes, February 7 and 8, I have a date in Atlantic city to go see the boats, gear and accessories. One day. Maybe just one day I will buy one too!
