Philly Boat Show


For over 30 years, Chessie Marine has been a cornerstone of the mid-Atlantic boating scene, operating with the singular mission of "Helping Families Make Memories." As a family-owned dealership and a Boating Industry Top 100 Dealer, they bring a personal touch to everything they do—from finding the perfect wakesurf boat to ensuring your engine is saltwater-ready.


The Philly Boat Show Experience

The Greater Philadelphia Boat Show (held at the Expo Center in Oaks, PA) is a major highlight on the Chessie Marine calendar. For the Chessie team, the "Philly Show" is the ultimate venue to connect with Pennsylvania and Delaware River boaters. They look forward to this event as a way to:


Introduce Premium Brands: They bring an impressive lineup of the industry’s best, including Malibu, Axis, Cobalt, Barletta, and Sea Chaser, giving Philly families a first look at the year's newest innovations.


Simplify the Buying Process: With on-site financing and attractive trade-in evaluations, they aim to make the transition from the show floor to the water as seamless as possible.


Celebrating the Philly Boating Community

What truly excites the Chessie Marine team about attending the Philly show is the chance to step out of the Maryland showroom and into the heart of the local community. They view every attendee not just as a potential owner, but as a future member of the "Chessie Family."


Reconnecting with long-time clients to hear about their latest trips on the water and meeting new enthusiasts who are just beginning their boating journey is what drives their passion.


"We love the energy of the Philadelphia community. Our goal at the show is to build lasting relationships that go far beyond a single weekend—we want to be your partners in making memories for years to come."
