kATE -

Just stop by the local marina. I stopped at mine today for something else and they were handing tickets out like candy.

Thanks for the ideas..unfortunately, i won't be heading by a marina !! It just makes me angry the amount of $$ they charge for admission...on top of parking ! oh well...

I just got back from the Boston show. Well thats after getting lost and ending up going over the Zaykum bridge and boiling over in anger. But what can you do.

I liked the new Scout 21 footer and the 235 was incredible. I like the 22 foot Proline, the 22 foot Blue Finn Cuttyhunk and the 20 foot Polar. But I went there to see the 21 foot Parker that wasn't even there. That sucked! I might of found something off the beaten path. One dealer has a 2003 20 footer loaded who's owner wants to trade up. Boat is supposed to be loaded. We'll see.

My dream boat was the large Everglades 28 footer with the Yamaha 225. Crowds were mild and the salesman and reps were great. Except for the old lady pushing the magazines!!! Keep away from her!!!!!!!!!!!
