    Default 2008 Cleveland Boat Show

    For those of you that made it up to the show - how was it??? Unfortunately, we couldn't make it. Does anybody have any pictures?

    Default Cleveland Boat show update

    Terry,

    The boat show was fun. Not too busy, surprisingly.

    Nicest boat at the show...SeaRay 48! I may be biased.

    The bus trip home was a disaster. To make a long story short...Two flat tires. No, not two tires flat at the same time, but one flat tire, followed by a 2 1/2 hour wait for repair, then a second flat followed by a 2 1/2 hour wait for repair. No food or beverages left...just a bunch of hungry boaters sobering up on a broken down bus from 5:00 til 12:30.

    Two couples bought boats, a 24 ft Larson and a 22 ft pontoon.

    Miss Cook,
    Sorry To Hear About Your Misfortune With The Bus. Must Have Been Really Bad Without Refreshments. We Enjoyed Seeing The Crew. I Believe All Had A Great Time.

    Default boat show

    Hey Lisa,

    No worries. You should take the bus next year.....and we'll drive!

    Maybe you have that photo of us stranded on the turnpike when you blew by. Would you like to share it?

    Wow - sorry to hear about the trip home. sorry we missed the show - not sorry we missed the bus ride. Since you guys had a waiting list - i think boatpittsburgh.com might have to sponsor a bus for next year. any thoughts?

    Sounds like this year tou must prepare better. More food, beer, liquor, and don't worry about the potty being full.
