I finally figured out my problem with my photobucket acct. Here are the pics from the Fort Wayne Show. This show was a little smaller but if inboards is what you want this is a good show. SC showed well with a good selection. Nautique,Bu,Axis and MC were also there. Nautique had the most boats MC only had 2.

I really like the gray and white Sunsport 21V. The baby blue and white Supra is nice too.

I was at the Fort Wayne show on Fri, night. Disappointed in the displays, and the amount of people. I believe there were more sales people than customers. I did look at alot of Bell Marine's products. Ski Nautique has a very nice 200. Dry Dock's display was nice. Wawasee Boat was lousy, so was PineCrest's. I overall believe the Supra and Moomba displays were the best. Al

I think boat manufacturer's are going to be in for a rough year again, although Mastercraft is selling there X-Star for $95k+ and the X-15 for $80k+, I cant imagine they will be selling too many of them. I dont know what the MSRP is on a 2010 Supra Launch 22V, but I would bet $65k+.

You would think boat prices would be coming down, but they seem to be going up in price :(

Most of the super rich are still doing fine. Was reading about one of my local dealerships, MN Vikings player Jared Allan has gone through three Bu's in the last two years and just sold his 2009 at the Mnpls boat show to upgrade to a 2010. Contracts are still getting bigger. http://mninboard.com/event-galleries.cfm

We went to the Fort Wayne show last weekend. I was surprised that there was only one booth that had any gear and no booths had towers or racks. It seemed to me that unless you wanted to spend $50,000 there wasn't much to check out.

We had fun looking at the new boats but were disappointed there was not more accessories on demo or for sale.
