I will be there Saturday. Have a buddy of mine that wants to talk to my dealer and buy my boat so I am getting them together at the show. I love helping spend other peoples boat money.

We'll be there, probably Saturday. Never been to the winter show but the one at the end of summer is pretty poor. I'm hoping this one has some of the newer models to check out.

Agree. We say that every year but we’ll probably still go Saturday.

Perfect night at the show with very few people. Had plenty of time to talk it up with some of the teams. There were 4 Yami boats at the show. But they didn’t have a Fsh which I was hoping to see.

This might be in my future though...

I SAW THAT TOO!!! Those Malibu's are super nice...and super expensive. I'll tell you I thought their exhibit was hands down the best part of the show. When I came down the escalators I saw the Yamahas right away (195, 210, and 242x) but those where the only ones at the whole show. Mike from inland boats showed me that Malibu there and one of the Axis boats--their overall length is smaller than my AR240 but they have so much more room with the pickle-fork bow. Maybe in my future too.
