Welcome Aboard!

Our Trawler Fest website will assist you with upcoming events, providing detailed descriptions of seminars, speakers, and exhibits and a wide range of “extracurricular” activities that make each of our unique locations an even more memorable experience.

We take the term “Fest” seriously and do our best to make each event a celebration as well as a first-class educational experience. Some of our programs highlight hands-on workshops and active demonstrations, while all provide top-notch classroom learning.

Every Trawler Fest showcases a special part of the country, and we encourage West Coasters to fly east to our Greenport, New York Trawler Fest to sample New England’s nautical heritage or come visit our Chesapeake Bay event in Solomons, MD. For East Coasters, there’s good reason to fly west and sample the flavor of quaint Anacortes, WA—a gateway to the San Juan Islands. While you’re on the other side of the country, book a post-Trawler Fest charter or B&B and make this summer a coast-swapping experience worth writing home about.
