Newport Boat Shown feedback
Last week I was at the Newport in the water boat show for the first time.
I was not all that impress. Many sailboats on display shown as new were build in 2004 - 2005. From what I can gathers not too many boats were sold. Does that mean that the US boat market is getting a little soft? |

Newport Boat Shown feedback
Is getting a little soft?
In New England the sailboat market is ................ flat. Problem seems to be the obstacles in front of the boat owner. First, find a mooring.. then get screwed by the town, harbor, state, ... or go to a Marina and meet Joey Boatfingers ( the Mafia has nothing on these guys ). In other areas I'm thinking that it isn't as bad. I know someone on the great lakes and it sure seems better. The marinas are much fairer. ===== wrote in message ...
