ML -
Lots of boats to check out and walk through. Scouts, Seacraft, Grady's, Maritime Skiff, Wellcraft, Pathfinder, Whalers, etc are all outside. Several hundred boats in the water including the large yatchs and sailing yatchs many of could never afford. They also had a small Whaler CC cut in half tooling around the water. The funny thing is I can't ever aford that half Whaler!
I went Friday afternoon and there were no crowds. It was sunny but windy. This weekend things look different. Parking was next to Anthony's pier 4 and was a respectable $7. I know the outside docks close earlier than the inside show so time your dock viewing accordingly. If you bring the kids watch them closely on the docks. I saw several of them wearing life vests. I believe you can borrow the life vests from show personnel. There were boxes of them on the ramps leading to the docks.
They also had all the financial lenders, magazines, Coast Guard, and many other booths there. Glad I went.
