[Captain Rich]

No mentions here, did anybody go? How was it ? Sailfish snapping down here, kind of windy and cool. Tight Lines--Rich

Hey Captain

I went with a couple buddies. The show was ok and was a nice break from the winter doldrums. I find it strange the folks in the booths do not engage more at these shows. Personally I am thinking about a re power for my boat and not a single outboard company I visited asked if I / we needed help or had any questions. Maybe it's just me? Otherwise had a nice night out with some fellow anglers and enjoyed a nice dinner afterwords at the Tun Tavern.

I think salespeople at these shows are in an awkward position, if they try to engage you, they are seen as too aggressive. After they get rebuffed by the first 1000 or so "tourists" they clam up.
