Seattle Boat Show Ends Tomorrow


Posted on January 31st, 2009 by Zack | Posted in Boats, Events, General

If you have not been down to the Seattle Boat Show or the boat show in your area…go! If you are even considering a boat purchase then you should take a few minutes to visit some dealers. The boat prices are unheard of right now with the current economy.

Savings for those that can take advantage will not be this good again. Malibus, Mastercrafts, and Nautiques are selling for $20,000 to $30,000 less than retail in some cases. Make the 2009 summer a memorable one by getting out on the water with family and friends!
