There's virtual reality boat racing and a virtual fishing simulator.
There's also a fish fry on the second day of the show on Friday.
Folks from all over Maryland and beyond check out the show every year.
"People just love being on the water," said Larry Muscatello of Annapolis. "I fish a lot, it's fun."
There are seminars and exhibits throughout the four day extravaganza.
One of the exhibitors is Okiaya Rod and Reel of Ocean City.
"People love being out on the water," said Sophia Christian. "You can fish, you can entertain, you can just hang out and have a good time."
The Baltimore Boat Show also features a lot of activities for children.
