I have the same ailment. I'm looking at a bigger Parker. "God willing and the river don't rise......"

Not me. I'm content with what I have.

I toyed with running down today, but I'm very close to at least verbially getting a deal done (subject to inspection and on the water trial) on a used McKee Craft 196CC. I figured why temp myself looking at new or getting off the track.

Tight lines.

Just got back from the show and there are some beautiful boats down there with some very UGLY price tags. Overall a decent show. 26 Regulator took top honors in my eyes and the 33 fountain was best of show for big boats..
Come on Powerball....:bgi:

I don't like the Regulator. Leslie Smith has one and it's a damn wet machine almost all the time.

I have a deposit on a new boat coming from FLA, I should be able to head down there sometime in May to tow it back here to MA. I'm pretty excited.

I was at the boat show and boy have prices for new boats gone up, but that is to be expected. Most 22-23 footers I was looking at were $44K and up, and the few 25-26 footers upwards of $60-80K+ and just too much boat for me, sometimes I think that even if I did have the loot to buy and maintain I still wouldn't. I get a bit disappointed in the show for the limited number of center consoles since I only like the C/C but that is just me.

Congrats Bassy. What did you get?

The dealers feel it is more of a Lake/Ski boat show

Boston is in February, right?

It is understandable that they can't have every boat in every lineup there, still, it sated my appetite for seeing brand new C/C's.
