Anyone go to Boston Boat Show?

You have a great boat and when I really sit back and think about it, I feel the same....Testesterone just flows when at a boat show...
 
I went to the show today, it was good. Not much for large boats but i am not buying a brand new boat. I did learn today that the admiral is now willing to talk about a bigger boat!! I almost choked when she pointed out a 2002 48DB. I am not sure we need that much boat or can afford the upkeep or fuel for that matter, I have seen some big numbers being thrown around on CSR. I am thinking maybe a 420 DB or similar, looking toward retirement and running her south. What do you guys think?

My wife loves the 52DB, I just mention the slip fee increase and fuel usage and she loves our boat again. Not that I would mind the bigger boat, I am just very comfortable on our 400DB and cannot justify the increased costs. We do not have kids and usually it is just the two of us. With kids/additional guests for overnighting, our boat would get a bit small.

Thinking the same way

The 42 next to me was real nice Russ...I think it sold for 300k

I was wondering about that boat
 
I went today, got there early no large crowds until after lunch. No change in the 330 (my 2007-310). I did like the Cruiser Yachts. The 360 and 480 were really nice. They had some nice extra features. They were also collecting the Sea Ray stickers.
