Default Chicago Boat Show

Well, it's here. Who is all going and what days? A group of us are going Wed. night the 16th around 5:30 or so when the crowd is smaller so we can get a good look at the boats without the long lines. I think the wife and I are going Sat. later afternoon as well. It sounds like there should be a pretty nice display this year. Hammer

Yes. The main ones that will be there are :

Shogren Performance Marine who represents Fountain www.chicagofountain.com
Grand Sport Center who represents Cigarette, Donzi, and Baja www.grandsportcenter.com

Velocity, Eliminator, Black Thunder, and Formula most likely will be there as well.

Grand Sport has added Donzi to their lineup this year as well.

The wifey and I will be going, not sure when. Possibly Friday during the day when crowds are smaller. Might be haulin' the little ones with us?

I am going to drool at the Fountains, the wife wants to see the Formula's. I figure if I look at it new, then in 5-10 years I can afford it when it is used.
