I agree....they have way too many 19' Center Consoles that couldn't take much more than a 2' wind chop at best without taking a beating. They need A LOT more boats that can actually run in the ocean 30+'. I mentioned that to someone at the show a couple years ago and their response was that this show was aimed at boating in Narragansett bay. I told him that is a shame as there is a lot more water outside the bay that is boatable and I thought RI was the "ocean" state, not the bay state. That said, this year they are going to have a hard time selling anything that requires disposable income. I bet a lot of vendors bail or the show is cut way back The cost to do one of those shows almost requires you selling some boats.
I am already hearing that some vendors are considering bailing from the RI fishing show in april. I hope most of them make the show. That was developing into a nice display of fishing stuff.
