The proposed National Sailing Hall of Fame (NSHOF), planned for the City Dock in Annapolis, would increase tourism and enhance the downtown area, fitting in with the city?s waterfront and history, according to a study released Monday by the Maryland Stadium Authority.
“Having the National Sailing Hall of Fame here and having it downtown puts us on the world map,” said Bob Burdon, president and CEO of the Annapolis and Anne Arundel County Chamber of Commerce. “It puts us at the center of sailing?s commercial, recreational and sporting industry and will boost the maritime economy.”
