I heard this also,,,,I think what has happened is all those people that got rich when our 401Ks and investments tanked are buying new boats now.

Maybe its just that the majority of people going to the show are actually considering buying a boat so the percentage of buyer seems high.

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.
