Went to the show yesterday. Its a smaller show but still something to do. They had a new Regal 260 there and I gotta say I wan't impressed. The cabin seemed very cramped but more than that the workmanship just didn't look very good. Mainly where the cabin door cutout was. The edges weren't trimmed very good and aesthetically just looked bad. You could also see the underside of the fiberglass helm when you were coming up the cabin steps. A nice trim piece would have made a big improvement.

I'll have to take a better look at ours next time I'm down there but never noticed that and it was noticeable. As soon as I stepped on that first step it stuck out like a sore thumb.

There were a couple new SLX's and SDX's that looked good. Also a nice 2015 310DA but I have been on that one before as it used to belong to friends at our marina that they traded on a 350.
 
I was there yesterday also, and like you I wasn't that impressed with the boats. Just doen't seem like the quality is there for the price you pay
 
No. Like I said, the SLX's looked good. And that 310 has been very well taken care of. But those Regals didn't impress me at all. There were a few pretty nice pontoons but just not our style. My mother and step-father were with us and they have a pontoon so they had alot to look at. Those old wooden boats in the back were pretty cool.

We got there about 10:15 and left about 12:30
