I've been to this show several times mainly because I live in Cedar Falls and usually get free or discounted tickets.
I went last night and there weren't as many ski boats as previous years. The Moomba display was pretty good but only one Nautique on display (SV211) and only one Malibu (Response LXI). The Malibu was actually the same boat they had last year and was obviously used. Last year the Malibu dealer tried real hard to get me into a Malibu. Said he'd take both my '02 and my '79 on trade and give me more than I paid for them. I still wasn't interested. |

The Atlanta Boat Show is this weekend January 11-15. I don't know about the Correct Crafts this year. Watersports Central has had a nice display in the past, but they are no longer a CC dealer. Does anyone know?

Just got home from the Chicago boat and RV show. Correct Craft, Mastercraft, Malibu, Mooba, Centurian, and Supra boats were there. I'm still happy with what I've got for now but I really had a hard time when we went to the Rv show. I'll upgrade my old Bounder one of these days.
If anyone goes to this show make sure you check out the Criss Crafts, they make some awesome looking boats. |

I went with my wife & kids,on the weekend.
I went with the mindset of signing a deal on a 211. The boat is perfect,BUT my wife can,t get comfy in the observers seat. We spent 2hrs in the 211,220,210,226,216 211-$65+ 226-$90+ how is this so much more,it,s just more fiberglass. Dirtbikes for the kids & I is starting to look good. Paul |

Snowman,
I'm surprised. I've spent a fair amount of time in a 211 and no one has ever complained about comfort. Alas, you've got to keep them happy. Personally, I don't see the value in a 226 either. The 226 handles well for a large boat, but the 211 handles extremely well for a V-Drive, much better than the 226, IMHO. Maybe you can get the wife on the water for a test ride/ski. She might change her mind. BKH |

Just Got back from working Toronto Boat show , Pride of Muskoka had a very nice Correct Craft display , talked with them for a while, nice people. Toronto show is cool because you see a lot of boats you don't in the states .
Lots o fun just a little cold !!!!! Mike |

I went to the Atlanta Boat Show Saturday. Congratulations to the new CC dealer in Atlanta - Cobalt Boats of Atlanta for winning "Best Boat Display". It was a great display of some GREAT boats!
