Newport in September is pretty good but THE sailboat show is Annapolis in
October. For shows in the next few months Strictly Sail in Philly, Jan
18-2, is pretty good but nothing like Annapolis. I was sorely disappointed
in the NYC boatshow last year. Mostly smaller power cruisers and outboards.

If you have serious bucks or just want to drool over the toys of the rich
and famous Miami and Ft. Lauderdale are spectacular.

I haven't been to a boat show for ??? But this year I am in a buying mood.

Do the shows still offer some good deals? Are they worth visiting?

And what shows in the Northeast ... NY Maine are the best ones to
visit?
