Re: Chicago powerboat dealers

What do you do in the industry, OR? I'll be going to IMTS sometime next week...by boat! My dad and I are going to drive over to my boat in Hammond and run over to Burnham Harbor then walk up to McCormack...did the same thing at the last IMTS. Of course, the business will be paying for parking...er...slip fee!

My dad owns a machine shop here in New Orleans. We manufacture oilfield products and DOD items.
We mostly go to bring employees and show them what is out there and what we can grow to become.

Sounds nice pulling up to the show on your boat maybe one day ill get there!!

Re: Chicago powerboat dealers

I was at Grand Sport Center last week, and they have a beautiful 38 Cig. However, they are pretty low on inventory (good for them!). Had a few older Bajas, a used 28 Powerquest and two Four Winns.

Shogren usually has a lot to see, but it is ~50 miles from the city.
