904.0. "Boat Shows" by CGVAX2::HAGERTY (Jack Hagerty KI1X) Fri Oct 28 1988 10:47

    Boston is having a boat show - from now unitl sunday.
    This isnt just any boat show. Its the 5th annual SportFISHING boat
    show. I hear tell that 80 Bass boat dealers are in attendance. 
    Do you know how much trouble I can get into?
    
    Lets see. I took out the loan on the lavender beauty for only 4
    years. I only owe for 2 years on it. I put about 1/2 down to start 
    with. 
    Ya know - I could get a 22 foot Gambler (a bright RED one) for the same 
    payments I have now!!! No wait, I need a saltwater boat. Ya thats
    it.

904.1I bought a 35' what?!SCOMAN::WOOLDRIDGEWorm fishermen have stiffer rodsFri Oct 28 1988 11:4710
    YO,
        I plan on going too...BUT,
                                   I'm leaving my checkbook and wallet
    at home. Last year was great. All these people walking around with
    glassy eyes. By the end of the show you are in a trance and have
    gone from an 18' bass boat to a 35' Burtrem (sp?) Yikes! So Jack,
    what kind of saltwater rig are you after? 
                                             See you at a beer booth,
                                 
                                        NIGHTCRAWLER~~~~~~~~~
904.2Schedule for 88/89 ShowsSSVAX::REDFIELDMon Nov 07 1988 16:089
    Does anyone have a schedule of boat shows, fishing shows etc. in
    the greater Boston area (including the Cape) for the next couple 
    of quarters?
    
    I plan on buying a few items this winter and would appreciate any
    advice as to which shows might offer the best deals.
    
    I plan on buying a loran, portable VHF Marine radio, small Avon
    inflatible and outboard.
