NY Boat Show 2026: Maximize Your Boat Space | POP Board Co Booth 559

If you boat in the Tri-State area—whether it's cruising the Great South Bay, docking in Sag Harbor, or running the Hudson—you know one truth: Square footage is the ultimate luxury.

Upgrading to a bigger vessel to get more deck space often means jumping into a new tax bracket for slip fees and winter storage. But what if you could expand the usable space of your current boat without the six-figure price tag?

From January 21–25, 2026, the New York Boat Show® returns to the Javits Center. While you are browsing the newest yachts, make sure to head to Booth #559. The POP Board Co and Rover Marine team will be there demonstrating exactly how to maximize your summer on the water.

The NY Boater’s Dilemma: Space vs. Storage

New York boaters face unique challenges. We have incredible waterways (from Lake George to the Jersey Shore), but we also deal with crowded marinas and limited storage space at home. We have analyzed the needs of our Northeast customers, and here is why our gear is taking over the East Coast.

1. The "Hamptons Patio" Solution (POP Up Docks)

When you are anchored at the sandbar or moored out for the sunset, the swim platform becomes the most crowded part of the boat. Everyone wants to be near the water.

Our POP Up Docks solve the congestion. By deploying a POP Dock, you instantly add 50% more square footage to your setup. It acts as a floating "back porch" where you can set up chairs, coolers, and let the kids jump off safely away from the engines.

• Why it wins in NY: It packs down into a bag. You get the deck space of a 50-footer while paying the slip fees of a 30-footer.
• Durability: Made with military-grade drop-stitch technology, it withstands the chop of the Long Island Sound and the paws of your golden retriever.

2. The "Apartment-Friendly" Tender (Rover Marine)

For city dwellers, owning a tender is a logistical headache. You can't park a trailer in a Manhattan garage, and storing a hard dinghy on deck ruins your view.

Enter the Rover Battle Boat. This is a high-performance inflatable skiff that rolls up to fit in the trunk of an Uber XL. It’s the perfect "Commuter Special" for getting out to your mooring or exploring the skinny waters of the North Shore.

• The Tech: It’s not a soft raft. It inflates to become rigid and capable, handling an outboard motor with ease.
• The Upgrade: Pair it with a Rover Electric Motor for a silent, zero-emissions ride that complies with strict reservoir regulations upstate.

What to See at Booth #559

We are bringing our full 2026 lineup to the Javits Center. Here is what you can get your hands on:

• The El Capitan Bomber: The 11'6" paddleboard that doubles as a fishing skiff. Perfect for the calm mornings on Lake Hopatcong or the flats of Shinnecock Bay. See the specs here.
• The Yacht Hopper: A board designed specifically for boat owners, featuring low-profile storage that makes it easy to stow in a gunwale or lazarette.
• Exclusive Show Specials: We always save our best deals for the floor. If you are looking to outfit your boat for the season, this is the time to buy.
