About Stuart, Florida
The city of Stuart is a quaint community with a restored downtown full of shops, restaurants, cultural attractions, and history. Located on the St. Lucie River, Stuart is a yachtsman’s paradise that sits at the eastern end of the Okeechobee Waterway, where the St. Lucie and Indian Rivers meet the Atlantic Ocean. Moderate temperatures make it an ideal location for a winter vacation. Point the bow of your boat toward Stuart for the 13th annual Trawler Fest in Florida!
About The Venue
The Hutchinson Island Marriott Beach Resort and Marina will be the premiere location for our Southeast Trawler Fest event. Easily accessible yet distant from the congestion of South Florida, this resort has long been a best-kept secret...the hidden jewel of the Treasure Coast. The facility is a 200-acre island resort conveniently located about 45 minutes from Palm Beach International Airport. It features 276 deluxe accommodations, more than 25,000 square feet of flexible meeting facilities, a 77-slip marina, and a beautiful setting in which to meet people who share your boating interests and to expand your knowledge about the cruising-under-power lifestyle.
