What You’ll See at the Houston Boat Show
This show is built for comparison shopping and lifestyle planning—whether you’re dreaming, browsing, or ready to make a move. The official exhibitor page notes a 2026 exhibitor listing that’s updated as new exhibitors are added, so you can preview brands and vendors before you go.
Expect a range of boats and boating-adjacent vendors that match the way Houston actually boats:
And because it’s part of the combined AutoBOATive format, the event is designed to feel like more than a standard boat show—more variety, more exhibits, and more reasons to make a day of it.
Boat More, Manage Less: Why Nautical Boat Club Belongs Here
Boat shows are exciting… until you remember what ownership really comes with:
maintenance, storage, insurance, cleaning, repairs, downtime, and an ever-ending checklist.
Nautical Boat Club is built for people who want the best part of boating without the year-round burden—so you can spend more time on the water and less time dealing with boat problems.
That’s why we lead with one clear message:

Two Houston-Area Locations
Montgomery + Kemah
One of the best reasons to talk with Nautical at the Houston Boat Show is simple: you have options. Your boating style can change depending on the weekend—and our two Houston-area locations are designed to match that.
Montgomery (Lake Conroe area)
Great for lake cruising, family days, and that “weekend reset” energy Lake Conroe is known for.
Kemah (Clear Lake / Bay access vibes)
Perfect for coastal energy, waterfront runs, and boating that feels a little more “Gulf-adjacent.”
At the show, ask us how membership works across Montgomery and Kemah—and how having two locations expands what your boating calendar can look like.
