Just took in the boat show in (near) DC and saw what appeared to be
a decent alternative for my needs. It was a 21' Sea Fox with
GPS/depth and VHF, trailer, Merc 150 optimax and other options for
significantly less than the 21' Trophy. Any ideas on this boat??
Only other "good deal" boat I saw were several Sea Pros but little
things like funky locker handles etc. made me a bit leery - but 2
lookers commented that their friends that had them thought they were
good boats. Anyone???

How was the show? I was thinking of running out there tomorrow (I live in
Alexandria).

Hard question to answer. Two buildings full of boats but it depends
what your interests are. There were +-40 dealers and with 2-3 lines
per dealer you can do the math. Based on my limited knowledge,
advertised prices were what I expected. Rinker, CG20 (?? not
completely sure of the # but it is a new retro look speedboat), deck
boats, a few offshore racers, mid size cruisers, cc, etc. were all
there along with 3 high end jon boats/bass boats. I found it
interesting and got a lot of questions answered but, since I don't
know much, that was to be expected. Admission was $8 and it was
comfortably crowded @4 - 7 PM.

Thanks. Sounds like something I can bypass. I'll wait for the Annapolis
powerboat show. That one is something.
