Looking for a boat to buy? Want to catch a deal? Or simply got an urge to escape the dead of winter, checking out the latest in boats, boating equipment and fishing seminars?

The New Jersey Boat Show, the area’s final boat show this winter, rolls into the New Jersey Convention Center in Edison from Thursday, February 19, through Sunday, February 22.

Billed as the “best-buying boat show,” the event will showcase hundreds of vessels, every conceivable type from 15 to 35 feet.

Boat dealers from throughout the region will exhibit 70 leading brands.

Look for "screaming deals" on certain vessels, the lowest prices prices of the show season, the show says.

This is your opportunity to “kick the tires,” compare vessels side-by-side, jump on board and consider all the best bargains under one roof.

Personal watercrafts are also on hand, and so are boat engines.

So is a marketplace for boating equipment from electronics to towers to charts; fishing equipment from rods to lures; marinas to dock your boat; brokers to sell your boat; boating schools; boat financing, insurance, towing and transporting; and more.
