Peachy Ahoy: 30th Annual Suncoast Boat Show in Sarasota Takes Place April 20-22 Gulf Coast Show Offers Unparalleled Boating Experience

The 30th Annual Suncoast Boat Show in Sarasota will take place April 20-22 at Marina Jack, located at 2 Marina Plaza in downtown Sarasota.

With onsite restaurants, plenty of downtown parking and convenient access, the show leads the fleet as one of the Gulf Coast’s premier boating destinations.

The show’s convenient location at Marina Jack boasts a floating dock permanent marina with a deep water harbor and no-bridge access to the Gulf of Mexico. In addition, accessory exhibit tents and boats on land will enhance the total show experience. Marina Jack also offers unparalleled dining in a spectacular facility with panoramic views of the marina, downtown, Sarasota Bay, Big Pass and the Gulf of Mexico.

“We are looking forward to celebrating 30 years in Sarasota and are happy to report that the show is on track to sell out,” said Dane Graziano, COO and senior vice president of Show Management. “We’ve expanded the in-water display area to accommodate all the exhibitor requests we have been receiving and we are expecting a very solid show this year.”

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
