MARQUETTE -- Preparations are underway for the 20th annual Boat, Sport & RV Show.

More than 60 vendors and dealers are setting up inside the Superior Dome in Marquette. Boats, campers, ATVs and other outdoor products will be on display.

Organizers say the weather may be cold, but it's time to start thinking about the great outdoors.

"We're fighting the weather a little bit when we're moving in, but I think probably the weather is supposed to get a little bit better this weekend and hopefully it'd be enough for people to get out and enjoy the comfortable atmosphere of the Superior Dome and see what's new, what's different. If they're looking to buy they can comparison shop," said organizer Dave Kimar.

As of Thursday afternoon organizers have only filled about a third of the dome. They plan to use all 100,000 square feet.

The show starts Friday and runs through Sunday.

Boat, Sport & RV Show hours:

Friday: 4 - 9 p.m.
Saturday: 10 a.m. - 7 p.m.
Sunday: 11 a.m. - 4 p.m.
