Heading to the Fort Myers Boat Show, November 12–15, 2026 at the City Yacht Basin? When you reach the Fish Tale Boats display, look for our check-in spot and scan the QR code with your phone camera. There is nothing to download. Checking in takes about a minute and opens a show-only guide to everything we brought. Here is what you can do with it.
Check In (and Enter to Win)
Check-in is two quick steps: your name, email, mobile number and ZIP code, then an optional question about the kind of boating you are into. You can skip the second step. A re-scan later in the day takes you straight to your show page, so you will not have to check in again on the same phone.
Win a Yamaha 2.5HP Outboard
Checking in enters you in our show giveaway for a Yamaha 2.5HP outboard engine, a $1,650 value. You can earn up to two entries per person, the drawing happens after the event, and the winner is notified by text and email. No purchase necessary. The giveaway page in your show guide has the prize details and a link to the official rules, also available at fishtale.com/rules.
See Yourself on a Boat: AI Postcard & Video
Pick any boat from our show lineup, take a selfie, and our AI puts you aboard. In about a minute you get a postcard and a short video to send to friends and family. Your postcards and videos are collected in a gallery on your phone, so you can view them again or send them later. You can even start a postcard straight from a boat's page with “See yourself on this boat.”
Boats at the Show, with Boat Show Pricing
Browse every boat we brought to the show, organized by brand. Each boat has its own page with the specs, the regular price and the boat show price side by side, so you can see the savings at a glance. Show pricing is good through the last day of the show.
Boat Show Window Stickers: Download or Email
Every boat with a show window sticker has it right on its page. Download the sticker to your phone, or tap Email and we will send it to you so you can look it over at home with the family.
Save the Boats You Like
Tap the heart on any boat to save it. When the day gets busy and the docks start to blur together, your saved boats are an easy way to remember which ones you want to see again.
Manufacturer Presentations
Each brand page includes a short, interactive “Why” presentation on the manufacturer: what sets the brand apart and why Fish Tale Boats chose to represent it. It is a quick way to get to know a brand before you step aboard.
Yamaha Pro Elite Plus
Yamaha has its own page too. Fish Tale Boats is a Yamaha Pro Elite Plus dealer, staffed by Yamaha Master Technicians in Fort Myers, and the page covers what that means for repowering and service. If you already own a boat, it is a good place to start a conversation about a repower.
About Fish Tale Boats and Life on the Water
Learn the story of the Fricke family, who have run Fish Tale Boats since 1996, along with our locations, our service team and what comes with every new boat. There is also a “Life on the Water” page on the boating and fishing lifestyle in Southwest Florida and the community and stewardship that keep us on the water.
