Went last night, If you went last year... not much has changed.... still nice to dream though.

There is a new maker of Cat boats from South Africa... the name escapes me at the moment.

that be the one... they also had a picture of the 60ft :eek5::eek5::eek5: 2.2mil
I'll take 3

the 21ft weighs 2800lbs and has 3 "fins/hydrofoils" one attached between the two sponsons... pretty cool.

I went last weekend and foot traffic picked up in the afternoon. Get there early if you want to see the boats before the baby carraige crowd arrives. Kids and shoes were everywhere in the afternoon.

I'm always kicking the tires and wanting to upgrade but I suffered from a little sticker shock after the show. Lots of boats had triples and it seems like all of the boats are starting around $135,000-140,000 and up. Heading into a possible recession and with gas prices inching closer to $3.25 a gallon, I'll stay with what I have.
