Default Cleveland Boat Show

January 16-25 at the IX Center near Hopkins Airport. The show will include used boats for the first time ever and I'm sure there will be great deals on all new boats as well. See you there!

Show update: Attendance is slightly off through Thursday; but large crowds expected this weekend due to no football on tv. Sales are running ahead of expectations at some booths; behind at others as per usual. Weather has cooperated up to now.

I guess thats the best we can hope for. I went through the other night and you could rolled a bowling ball through the place. A fair number of used boats were there, and overall the show looked to be about 25% smaller than last year.

This economy sucks!

Weekends were fairly busy, Saturdays especially. Attendace compared to last year was off; but not nearly as bad as expected. Show was smaller for sure, and your 25% may be close to accurate. Better days ahead, we've been through this before.

Man I miss the Cleve Boat Show! Usually alaska-level conditions in that field of a parking lot. So much smoke inside it looks like fog. But it still ruled! Grab a brew, and meander down to the Tiaras and see what I cant afford. Dream about PIB. The boat shows here in SC are tiny.

The last two i went to (roughly 2003 give or take) I remember the parking lot was a frozen tundra with ice and wind and freezing wind and snow, but the place was packed! Nothing like it that ive seen indoors.
