The in water boat show starts Thursday in Bostion and runs thru the weekend. I wonder what new boats they will bring?

I am planning to go Saturday.

I was very disappointed about quality of this show…. It was not as big as I though would be… Only 4 boats are displayed on water ( 3 Vistas and one Funship,) and no boat in inside from Four Winns. No Hs, No SLs very poor presentation.. I wish other FW dealers were involved… :(

Flying Sushi,
I go to this show every year. I was very disappointed as well. It was way down from the past few years. Four Winns ussually has about 6 outside and 8 inside. Everyone was down. I talked to a few salesman I have seen over the years they pot in about 20% less dock space. No Cruisers inc, no Regal just to name a few.

I also notice less accessories and clothing inside. Maybe a sign of the times.

Did you see the $2.6 mil Sea Ray?

Oh yes… Sea Ray had a good presentation and could not miss that 60’ Sundancer…
I am not a Cruiser or Yacht guy but I was impressed on that one… I am still upset about FW showing… I think those boats at show were 09 model but left over 08 :evil:

I think you are right. I was looking for the new interior colors and it was the old.

Not the best show. Maybe the show in January will be better.
