Default Cleveland Boat Show

Anyone know if there will be any performance boats at Cleveland Boat Show this weekend? Went a couple of years ago and there were not many, may go to just have a few beers at Frostys

I didnt see any performance boats last year, it was mostly cruiser type boats. I'll be going again tomorrow to see what vendors are there because I'm in the middle of refinishing one of my boats but if it wasn't for that I wouldn't be going. I'll let you know if theres any powerboats this year though.

I'm planning on catching the Miami boat show next month and I'm pretty sure we'll see some awesome powerboats there!

Seems someone could put a party together at a local pub somewhere for all to meet up! Save the $10 parking for another beverage. Just a thought! Rich Not to mention cost of entry to see the same ole same!

The boat show was definitely smaller than the previous years. Its really sad but there were almost as many home improvement vendors as there were boat vendors. Unless your in the market for a used cruiser or a small fishing boat I wouldn't suggest going. I won't be returning to the show for years to come. Its just not worth the drive there let alone the money to park and pay for admission!

Have been attending for many years. This one was by far the smallest and most disappointing (for me) ever. Only perf. boat I saw was a used 25 Outlaw for sale by a local boat shop. There were some nice Formula "crossovers" as well. Will need to think real hard about going back next year.

Default ....

Not much in the go-fast area, a baja and a formula...... but I did see a lot of something I have not seen in years at a boat show ....SOLD signs!!! Marine max has sold signs on all but 3 or 4 of their boats and as I looked around I noticed most dealers there had quite a few boats sold. Its coming back!!
