The Cincy Boat Expo 2025 set sail at the Sharonville Convention Center earlier this month, bringing together boating enthusiasts from across the region for a spectacular showcase of the latest watercraft. With more than 75 boats on display, from pontoons to deck boats and bow riders, attendees had the chance to explore the newest models from top brands like Sea Ray, Harris, Barletta, and Regal—all while taking advantage of exclusive show pricing.
Typically held at the Duke Energy Convention Center, this year’s event found a new home in Sharonville due to ongoing renovations downtown. Event organizers, including Hern Marine’s Brad and Ron Cummins, credit the Sharonville Convention Center for stepping in at a crucial moment.
“When we learned we needed to find a new venue, the Sharonville Convention Center was a lifesaver,” said Brad Cummins. “Their team worked with us every step of the way to ensure a smooth transition, and the response from both vendors and attendees has been overwhelmingly positive.”
Beyond the impressive boat lineup, the expo featured a marine retail showcase with local businesses like Sick Speed Marine Electronics and Wake Cumberland Watersports, offering everything from boat detailing services to cutting-edge marine tech. Special promotions, including free admission for first responders and a Valentine’s Day ticket deal, added to the excitement.
With another successful event in the books, organizers and attendees alike are already looking forward to next year’s expo—proving that the Cincy Boat Expo is a must-attend tradition, no matter the location.
