Held on the banks of the Cape Fear River in downtown Wilmington, CFCC’s boat show attracts thousands of visitors every year.

This year, the event will feature over a wide variety of wooden boats, including kayaks, skiffs, and boats from the Simmons Sea Skiff Club. Fiberglass boats from professional boat dealers and boat building material suppliers from around the region are invited join the show. Students in CFCC’s two boat building programs will exhibit their own work in wooden and fiberglass boat building. CFCC’s boat building shops will be open for self-guided tours.
