Build Timeline for Miami International Boat Show
We don't pad timelines but we also don't underquote them.
We plan Miami International Boat Show builds backwards from the official load-in window. Structural elements pre-staged the day before, graphics applied morning-of, AV and lighting calibrated by midday, then a final walkthrough with the project manager before doors open.
Miami International Boat Show runs at Miami Marine Stadium Park & Basin, Virginia Key; In-water + Convention Center during February. Attendance is typically 100000, and the show targets Boat manufacturers, yacht builders, marine electronics, outboard engines, accessories. ['Largest boat show in the US by number of boats', 'Over $1 billion in sales generated annually', 'In-water displays of vessels from small runabouts to megayachts', 'Coincides with Yachts Miami Beach for broader coverage']
Crew continuity: same Miami supervisor on repeat cycles where possible
