Just around the corner are two of the largest boat shows in North America, hosted in the historic maritime city of Annapolis, MD – America's Sailing Capital.

Welcome to the special Annapolis Preview Issue of Horizons featuring the Beneteau boats on display at the U.S. Powerboat Show October 3 – 6 and the U.S. Sailboat Show October 10 – 14 in Annapolis, MD.

We've been busy making preparations to bring you an impressive lineup of Beneteau powerboats and sailboats to explore. So if you're heading to Annapolis, please make plans to visit us! Here's a quick preview of what you'll see. And by the way, for those of you looking to purchase a new Beneteau for the first time, special boat show pricing and purchase incentives will make you glad you came.

In the next issue of Horizons, we'll bring you our personal follow-up interview with Gerry Hughes who successfully circumnavigated the globe solo on his Beneteau 42s7 and introduce you to 11-year old Jake Jordan, who captained Chowdah to win the Oceanis Division 1 in the Beneteau Cup San Diego. And that's not all, so be sure to watch for the next issue of Beneteau Horizons in your inbox.
