Antique and Classic Boat Society |
The Antique and Classic Boat Society is the world's largest group devoted to antique boating. Since its beginnings in 1975 the ACBS has helped introduce thousands to the hobby of antique boating.
The Philadelphia chapter of the Antique and Classic Boat Society was formed in 1998. We're a varied bunch of people who have a common love of the "woodies" of the past. We believe that roaring around in a beautifully varnished mahogany runabout is among the greatest pleasures of life. The Philadelphia Chapter of the ACBS sponsors a variety of boat shows throughout the boating season, organizes member get-togethers so fellow boat owners or prospective boat owners can share experiences, and generally provides a comfortable environment in which to explore old boats.
We have informal dinner meetings throughout the year and come together several times to show our boats to the general public. See our Calendar for the current dates and locations.
