Seattle Boat Show calls audible; shortens run for Super Bowl

BOATING -- Producers of the 2014 Seattle Boat Show have changed their play, and will close their big production next week a day early so  “exhibitors, event staff and showgoers can watch the (Super Bowl) with their friends and families.”

The event will close at 8 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 1, which leaves boating enthusiasts with nine full days to visit the West Coast’s largest boat show.

The Seattle Boat Show opens at 11 a.m. Friday in the CenturyLink Field Event Center and on the water at south Lake Union.

As a bonus, the show has arranged with CenturyLink to allow field access to showgoers/Seahawks fans each day of the show except Jan. 29-30. The field will be open from noon until 2 p.m., letting the public wander the turf, sport their Seahawks gear, and get a feel for how big the place is.
