Nice pictures Neal specially the middle one.. We are thinking about going Sunday, is it going to be easier to get there early, or later to avoid the crowds?

I got there just after 10 and left about 1 and it was not too busy while I was there but some people may combine the local boat jumble with the show Sunday for whole day out.
The displays were all good and plenty of boats to have a look at, if your looking to get new one or like me window shopping today. I would like to have seen few more odds & ends e.g. Chartplotters but never mind. I think this was the second year for the show and it seemed to me to have grown and that good for everyone.
Nick family day out sounds good.
If any of you go to the show enjoy it.

Some more pics of the show...we visited this afternoon (Saturday). Plenty to see. Nice to see Ribcraft there this year..they didn't show last year! Turned out to be an expensive afternoon...Mike lost his NEW glasses...last seen airbourne at the top of Southampton Water (whilst trying out the 5.8 ribcraft!)...and we now want to upgrade from our 4.8 to a 5.8 ribcraft. We should have stayed at home!!

Can't temp you to stray from Ribcraft??
Looks like you are going to have to cram more patients through to pay for that new boat!!!
