To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.
To talk health, happiness and prosperity to every person you meet.
To make all your friends feel that there is something in them.
To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.
To think only of the best, to work only for the best and expect only the best.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.
To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.
To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile.
To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others.
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.

The 42nd Annual Seaside
B AT SHOW B AT SHOW
WELCOME TO THE 42nd ANNUAL SEASIDE BOAT SHOW, presented by the Ocean City/Berlin Optimist Club. Exhibitors from Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Virginia will be offering numerous special show prices & displaying their newest and most popular models inside the 40th Street Ocean City Convention Center. The large number of boats sold each year during this 3-day show has established it as one of the most popular boat shows on the East Coast. The Seaside Boat Show will, again, offer many boat related exhibits, including marine electronics, trailers, canvas tops, motors, fish and tackle, nature crafts, boat parts, jewelry, art, financing, and insurance. We also host multiple non-profit organizations from within our community.
The Optimist Club is an international organization dedicated to providing opportunities and assistance to today’s youth. The Ocean City/Berlin Optimist Club is comprised of volunteer members who work through the year to generate funds to provide activities and programs for the area youth. Income realized from the SEASIDE BOAT SHOW and other projects, benefits thousands of young people annually. The Ocean City/Berlin OPTIMIST are proud to be recognized as one of the area’s leading civic organizations.
The Optimist members are always aware of the importance and contributions of each individual exhibitor in producing a quality show, and one that is a pleasure for visitors to attend. We feel that no other boat show compares with the SEASIDE BOAT SHOW for appeal and enjoyment, a characteristic for which we are continually indebted to our exhibitors. One exhibitor to whom we owe a special debt of gratitude is North Bay Marina (Scott McCurdy) whom for the past 35 years has donated our Grand Prize of a Pontoon Boat. Without his and many others’ support, our show would not be the success it is today. We sincerely appreciate the support of the thousands of visitors that attend each year and hope you will make the SEASIDE BOAT SHOW an annual event.
A Specials thanks to Charlie Dorman. Through his dedication, and tens of thousands of hours of volunteering, he has made this show into what it is today. ‘Thanks for guiding me on this show’. And, a special thank you to all the OPTIMIST who work the Show. Without them we could not open the doors. Enjoy the Show!
