On Aug. 12-13, more than 60 of North America’s rarest and finest classic wooden boats will be on display at the historic Obexer’s Boat Company on the West Shore.

In its 44th year, the Concours d’Elegance is celebrating the anniversary of a boating icon: Chris-Craft Racing Runabouts. These boats have a rich history that pre-dates World War II. The featured Marque for Concours is the 19 foot split cockpit model Chris-Craft Racer built from 1947 to 1954. These boats were designed for speed. This Marque Class will be one of the largest collections of pristine Chris-Craft Racing Runabouts ever assembled in one location.

In addition, the show will host a wide range of other wooden boats with a variety of style and history. All of the events are open to the public.
