I'm with you, I'm happy being second. In fact awhile ago, I flew to Virginia Beach to buy a van that I wanted. Again I say, needs are not expensive, but wants are. Lol Nothing that would make you say, MAN I GOT TO HAVE ONE OF THOSE. Just the usual non boating stuff, someone selling knives...

How many of you are Great Lakes Boaters, and where do you hale from? My play ground starts at the Erie Islands Sandusky Oh, to the Detroit River, and to Lake St. Clair, and the up The St. Clair River to Sarnia Ontario. Depending on the weather the one joy about trailer boating, is you don't...

Well made it to the Detroit show, which is a lot easier to get to then the Cleveland show, by way of Greek Town and the people mover, which by the way of some grant is free in 2024. I personally thought it was well done. They gave you a little bit of everything. Chaparral was well represented. I...

I guess after 30 + years and all the added work and items, it could qualify as passion.:)

Yah, I saw some of that stuff at the show. Center consoles with 3 - 300hp motors on the back, as if they were part of the package. You are not buying a boat, you are buying 3 motors and something to hang them on. In years to come the boat will be worth nothing without the motors.Those things...

Only people with stupid money can buy can buy this kind of stuff. Before the show price, it was listed at over 1/2 a mil. and I don't know if it even had a place for a porta potty. Lol

Made it to the show, lot of things to see, had a great day, well worth the trip. Could not believe my eyes when I saw this. There are only 2 ways for me to describe the Ski Nautique, WOW and YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME. $454,000 show price and payments of $3,000 per month. arigon

Found this on the net, it was originally called Mix-I-Go,developed in 1950 by R. J. Bell. Now it goes by the name Bell Performance. I have called and talked with them and was very impressed with the product and a guy named Jim in tech. support. I am now using it in my snow thrower, and will put...

No, just dinner afterwards. Lol boats or slots, boats or slots, they both take your money, and leave you with memories. The money that I save by not gambling allows me to put gas in my girl, and to me that is money well spent.

This is for you that like to have your outdrive looking as nice as the rest of your girl. I have posted before about the drive shower on the Chaparral Boat Forum, so this is for you that have not see, nor heard about the drive shower. I was introduced to the shower by one of the Chap guys, so I...

Jan 27th thru May 4th Another day of entertainment for me. Years ago the Cleveland and Detroit Shows were in separate months, never this close, and not to mention they were a lot bigger. Last year one of the venders that I know, said that the Cleveland Show made the isles wider so the show...

Looking forward to it. Over the holiday hump, and on the first signs of what is to come.:coolshade

international exposition center, or commonly known as the I-X Center

One of the neat things about the Cleveland Boat Show in January, is you never know what the weather will be. Ice, snow, rain, I've experienced them all, sometimes all in the same trip. Lol But it is all worth it. For me it is a day of window shopping, looking for new gadgets, along with the...

Warm wishes to all of you and yours, and safe travels to you that may doing so.

Good looking girl, nice arch, you are right, it sure does look like a lot of work. Is it electric? Do you have a photo of what it looks like down?

Sounds like some nice trips. Safe travels.

Thanks Iggy, the first thing I am going to do is pack a lunch and sit down and read it. Lol
