Annapolis 2025
We'll be back fall 2025 for the annual US Sailboat Show in Annapolis!Every October Andy, Mia, August and friends and family of the 59º North team descend on our spiritual home port for the annual Boat Show festivities, and we’ll be back in 2025! If you came to meet us in year’s past, we’ll be in a NEW spot, our booth in Tent O-8, just inside the show entrance near the hotel, and we’ve got some similar events on tap throughout the week. Note that the show dates are October 9 thru October 12 (Thursday-Sunday, 4 days).
And, for 2025, we have HUGE NEWS! … We can’t share it just yet, but if you’re a fan of 59º North and can make it to Annapolis for the show, do it! The news will be worth it :)

SCHOONER WOODWIND SAIL W/JAMES THE SAILOR MAN

There’s another chance to jump on a 59º North-adjacent Woodwind sail, this time on Saturday.

James will be hanging with us a lot at the show this year, and is doing his own Woodwind sail on Saturday, tickets still available. Andy might make a guest appearance (and maybe bring the cannon!).

59º North booth — come say hi & talk sailing! Friends, former & future crew, all welcome! Tent O-8, just inside the hotel entrance near the drawbridge.
