:oops: what a bust. Had a lot of boats but very little saltwater stuff and none of what I was looking for. Needed some new bumpers, anchor, holder/bracket for the grill didn't have any of that stuff. Guess it is a trip to Bass Pro Shop in Sc. 2 hr trip one way. Unless I can find it at another place closer. Then can always have it shiped.

The NYC show didn't have much to offer either in the way of accessories. Seemed like only big boat items or useless things that didn't really have to much to do with boating. I haven't been to the boat show in many years but I remember a lot more cool stuff, In fact I got a great deal on a VHF radio. Oh well, thank god for the internet.

We just had ours here in Columbus, Ohio. Not bad over all. I guess. Like you guys said NO ACCESSORIES just boats and RVs (it was a boat and RV show). Minimal camping accessories. I did like all high end pontoons there. There was Benny there 76k that toon was sweet. Gorgeous pontoon. The Benninginton dealer had a full line there. from 76k to 18k. No cabin cursiers. Few cuddy's. Pontoon, Bow riders, Bass and Utility's ruled. I did notice they still made deck boats. I thought by now with all the advancements in toonology. They would be a hard sell. Toons are just as fast as deck boats now.
