    Default Boat Shows 2017

    Boat show season is starting. Post some pics of what you like/don't like or something new. It does not have to be a boat.

    Default Atlanta Boat Show

    I'll start it off. Never afraid to post a pic or my opinion. I went today to the Atlanta Boat Show and it was very typical of what I have seen over the last few years...a lot of boats that I cannot afford for one thing. Sky is the limit now if you want the best for wake surfing or boarding.

    I believe there is another thread on here perhaps about grilling on the boat and I saw this option on the back of a Chapparel. Although I have a small grill that attaches on my railing for my pontoon, I don't believe I will ever use it.




    These were cool. If you want to use those old skis for something other than wall art, here is an idea.

    What type of boat is it?



    If you said Surf Boat, then guess again.




    Wow, what a bargain!

    Now that we are through with the absurd, let's get down to the real absurd.

    I have to admit, I rather liked the new SR 400. Nice size and very well appointed. Looks like a good all around performer. I even liked the color combo partly due to the fact it wasn't metal flake.








    I believe however if I were to spend that money for new, I would buy a Super Air Nautique 210

    MasterCrap displayed their new reverse system for their boats called DockStar. I used to love Mastercrafts growing up. Thought they were super cool. I don't care how good a wake they throw, they had to be the ugliest things at the show. The design is poor. Makes Supra look like a Maserati now. They all look like Transformers and have no soft curves or smooth lines. Just ugly!



    Notice the two small rudders before the prop.







    MasterCrap did have a teak swim platform option. I'm all for teak, but it seemed out of place on this style of boat now.

    That much HP on a pontoon- ouch. How does it hold enough gas to feed those beasts.

    The offshore guys found out last year when 2-3 skaters flipped.

    WHOAAAAAA! Was everyone ejected here alright?!?!


    edit: Nope. I did some research..... Don't watch that video. It doesn't end well for either of the 2 involved.

    I'm a fan of teak, but that swim platform on that MC looks so out of place. Horrible.

    On the flip side, go Chris Craft. That is good looking.
