50 YEARS OF EXCELLENCE

AUGUST 9 – 10, 2024

SHOW YOUR BOAT

Showcase your boat among some of the most well-preserved and restored boats in the world at North America’s premier wooden boat show! Each year the Lake Tahoe Concours d’Elegance features more than 60 classic watercrafts. The Tahoe Yacht Club Foundation’s goal is to always have the best boats in the world, and only the finest boats that measure up to Concours‘ meticulous quality standards will be accepted into the show. Admission into Concours is a benchmark for wooden boat owners but classic fiberglass boats can also be entered. With continuously growing interest in participation in the show and a limited number of berths at Obexer’s Marina, we encourage you to register early.

2024 Class Structure – COMING SOON

Boats may be entered as Judged or Non-Judged “display-only.” Repeat Judged entries are to be judged a maximum of three (3) consecutive years. Also, the Selection Committee shall determine final placement of entries within the Class Structure above.

THE MARQUE CLASS

All different types of boats are displayed at the Lake Tahoe Concours d’Elegance, but it’s the featured Marque Class that makes each Concours extraordinary. A Marque Class is selected every year by a panel of nationally recognized classic boat experts and judges to exhibit at the show. Each individual Marque Class is designed to bring a unique element and theme to the show and to ensure boating enthusiasts a new educational and viewing experience year after year.

2024 Marque Class – 50 Years of Past Overall Best of Show Winners

With 2024 being the 50th anniversary of the Lake Tahoe Concours d’Elegance, we will take a look back at the past winners of the famous Jordy Carlton Overall Best of Show trophy that was first handed out at Chambers Landing in 1973. The boats bestowed the honor of the Tahoe Best of Show title have been lovingly cared for all over the world – some names have changed since, but all will be invited to be shown in the Obexer’s marina this year!
