The Overland Park Boat Show will bring a bit of Lake of the Ozarks to the Kansas City area this week! The show starts Thursday, Jan. 26 and runs through Sunday, Jan. 29.
The only recreational boat show in the Kansas City area, the Overland Park Boat Show is a great chance for boaters across the Midwest to shop for their next dream boat. In the past few years, the event has welcomed more than 7,000 boaters.
This is Lake of the Ozarks Marine Dealership Association’s (LOMDA’s) first boat show of the year and marine dealers from across the Lake area will be in attendance, including Big Thunder, All About Boats, Marine Max, Premier 54, Surdyke Yamaha, Formula Boats of Missouri and many more. All say they’re excited to show boaters the newest makes and models, at special boat show prices.
LakeExpo.com caught up with a few marine dealers as they busily prepared for the show, and got a peek at a few of the many boats they’ll be bringing. Dealers shared the boat models as well as a few of their thoughts about each.
