Whos going to the Boat show then ?

Anyone going ?

I'd like to go just for a browse - which will probably end up with me buying loads of things

But as luck would have it, I'm away on holiday, so that will probably cost me less than going to the show !

Parkers are exhibiting with 6 boats on the water. Mind you not any of them are ribs but you are still welcome to come and have a look at them. I will be there weekends only otherwise just the dealers.

Good luck with finding a hotel (at least without having to sell a kidney)

Last time that I went with Jim, he came out with so many carriers full of crap, he looked like a bag lady looking for a park bench.

@ ribcraft4.8, probably.

Two years ago I went looking for a boat cover, there were a couple of exhibitors who would do them. But they were not the cheapest or best.

Its a good place to see stuff in the flesh and speak to sellers to gauge the service and quality - then I tend to do follow up research online.

I also find I see stuff I didn't know about (and end up buying it)
