Annapolis sailboat show
Recession what recession?
Factoring in the additional cost of sails, electronics, etc., acquisition of this boat could starting getting expensive.
Running behind schedule in completing a long running master bath renovation, I didn't attend the Powerboat show that folllowed the Sailboat show. I would have talked to outboard engine manufactures about power for my Bluejacket.
Friends who attended the Powerboat show along with a local newspaper article, talked about how sticker shock was a frequent occurrence. Not sure if the prices have noticeably increased over last year. Perhaps with real estate values depressed, the stock market subject to manic swings and job stability concerns, for too many folks the expense of a new boat purchase is now beyond their means or tolerance for taking on new debt.
