Looks like the V435 is the bigeest FW boat at the show.

Make sure you take a look at the new Carver 34Fly. Unless you do not care for flybridge boats.
Interested to see opinions on this all new boat from Carver.

Also interested to see what others think about the Cruiser's Sport Series(formerly Azure) bowriders fit and finish,
as well as the new Sea Ray 21 foot jet, (how it compares to the Yamaha jets)
The DECKadence Marine Flooring is worth looking into as a possible replacement for traditional marine carpet.

And of course, boat show pricing on the FW boats.

Have fun.

I will keep these in mind when I am looking around Cap'n. So far my plans are to be there on the second Saturday, if anybody is interested in meeting up.

Thats too bad that SR does not seem to want to show for the second year that they are in the biz of making 45+ ft boats, I believe those are the boats that get a lot of tire kickers.
I am aware that few are buyers but the buz they create has to be healthy. Not to mention I believe all the other boat manufactures will have a full product line on hand.

To Acguy my wife and I are going to look at the 08 458 on the weekend, will advise.
Thanks

For those that are interested in Bowriders. Four Winns will debut the all new Horizon 200 at the New York Show today, and at the Toronto Show as well. First time this boat has been seen in public. Follows the new design of the rest of their bowriders as you would expect.

"very accessible for maintenance(s) all molded in fiberglass"
Donnez-moi le Sawzall, s'il vous plait!

2 silly backwards seats make the engine compartment barely big enough for the engine to fit, I bet you'd hear a few choice cuss words en Francais, if he ever had to change the oil filter or starter.

Boat looks nice, high quality interior, designed by fools who despise mechanics.
Maybe I'll post a pic of my old one so FW can recall how a boat can be designed to be repaired by normal size humans. All it took was a pair of take apart hinges, and a collection of bolts and wingnuts. Whole thing comes apart in 5 min. Wide open access. And I'm certainly not an engineer. Just a ole backyard mechanic from Long Island who likes to get things done fast.

Terry, I'd guess you would be attending the Toronto Boat Show Preview Night on Friday, then follow up with attending the show again on Saturday?

My wife and I are booked in at the Westin for Saturday night. Would you be staying at the Westin or Sheraton?

Mike.
