What to take to AC boat show?
 
From a sales stand point, what would you think we would have more interest in? I am taking 3 pontoons regardless. But as for checkmate, I am torn between a 280zt or the new 250sfx fish boat. We move in this weekend and any help would be greatly appreciated. I am talking sales not just lookers.

Based on there being more fisherman than performance boaters, I'd bring the 250 SFX.

I know it sucks to say, but, I'd have to say the fishing as well.
If it was up to me , there would only be performance boats though..

Its killing me. I only have room for the one checkmate or I would bring a few. Thanks guys

Boats To Bring
 
See if you could bring both CHECKMATES by tilting them keel to keel.I've seen this done in tight booths before and I think that with 28 you would probably have the only high performance boat in the show.I'll see you at the show.

love the 4 bolsters and bench seat in that boat! while at a deler in fort wolton saw one love at first sight.

Drop a pontoon boat and bring a second Checkmate. The Jersey market has far demand for v-bottoms than pontoons.

I went to the New York Boat Show Saturday and there was NO Performance Boats onsite.Drove over 3 hours for that suprise..

You're in the business to sell boats. Take whats selling, even if that's taking all pontoons. :) Not all boat shoppers are HP boaters. And judging by the boats on the lakes, very few are anymore. But a varity is nice to offerr to the occasional odd ball. ;)
