Annapolis (MD) Power Boat Show
 

Interesting that there haven't been any comments / reviews of the boat
show in Annapolis this weekend. We went Friday and had a great time.
The weather couldn't have been better - high 60's / low 70's; plenty
of sunshine; and just a mild wind. Lots of big dream boats to ogle
and only a few 'pushy' sales people.

For me, I believe that one of the better areas of 'real' interest was
the Formula dealer (or maybe the manufacturer) - the boats were nice,
the prices were a bit higher than other comparable sized boats, but
the financing plan they were offering more than offset the upfront
cost. 0% for 4yrs, then 4.49% for the remainder. Even the
independent loan specialists were starting at 6.5% for 20 yrs.

Maybe somebody should construct a financing plan that more accurately
reflects the ownership experience of a lot of the first time impulse
buyers who splurge for a new boat..........zero interest after the
first year. :-)

Hell, I didn't even know it was going on. The wife's out of town, and that
would have been a nice way to spend a Saturday.

Did get a nice motorcycle ride out towards your neck of the woods though.
