I'll be there, I just don't know when. I usually re-up for Boat US, the Fisherman, etc. to get show "discounts".

I didn't make the Prov boat show, so I'll try to make this one. I hope Saltwater Mag, is giving away a year for free again.

I'm going but not buying this year. Unless I find a deal that's too good to be true.....

I'll go twice, once on the weekend with the kids (they love it) and once during the week for me.

Anyone know if I could get there from the Lakeville T Stop? Is there a T-run out of Braintree that has a stop close enough to walk it?

Not sure. Just wanted to say Hi. You thinking about getting a new boat?

Red Line from Braintree to South Station. Not too far a walk to the Conv Center. Maybe 1/2 mile???

Thanks Capecodder...

I thought the amout of construction that went on kinda prohibited a safe walk back to the Conv. Ctr.
Based on what I saw...or did not see at the R.I. Boat Show, it may not be worth the trip. I happen to overhear 2 boat salesmen talking on their lunch break and they sounded pretty glum as to the prospects of sales for their companys. With talk of us in/entering a recession, price of gas, housing and now credit card defaults, I can see their point.

No,,, its all clear; construction is over, good sidewalks and its a straight shot to the BCEC..
As for the salesmen, maybe if they lowered prices.. YEA RIGHT !!!!:l aughs:

Skip,

Again, as a 1 post member (would be two posts but I deleted the first one) why would you use your first post to steer traffic to your booth at the show? Oh, I know, don't tell me, self promotion perhaps?

While there are several S-B members that will be WORKING the show and will maybe/hopefully announce what booth they are at they are part of the S-B community. I'd like to think you might want to be part of that community too, not just pull a "Bartlett" and use this site for free advertising or self promotion.

Thanks...
