They lost me..
$28 for tickets and $40 for shuttle parking….. we’ll find a better way to spend 100 bucks… use to enjoy it… :-(

wow and they don't even have that many normal people boats.. plus 40 bucks for shuttle parking that's crazy they must not be expecting normal people to attend

The kind of folks who could buy a boat there aren’t too
concerned with things like that. By charging high admission
they actually go two for one; pick up some extra $$$ and
keep the plebs and bums out.

When I was selling software to banks, I took some VPs from CiTiBank to that show. One of them owned a 34' HInkley!

No normal people at that show.

Base price for the 29R (R stands for runabout) is $383,000; the Picnic Boat is now $835,000. The new T34 (T stands for Talaria, the winged sandals worn by the Greek god Hermes) comes in at $535,000. “It's priced to bring new people in,” McManus said. “More people can afford it.”

the only real decision is cash or finance, that being said, I am hearing the buying stopped in Spring due to the recession and all
