    It would have been nice to meet with you and other YF friends, but I have another event here in Sweden this week...

    Hope you will have a chance to see our boats anyway!

    Sorry we'll miss you again. I have been a Delta fan since hull # 1 and haven't missed seeing a new model yet :)

    Tom Serio has a room at Bahia Mar for the duration of the show. Hopefully he can post a few pics.

    Carl --

    Poor placement to post about Tom's hotel room beneath the boat show babes photo. Let's be clear that we want to see Tom's pictures of yachts!

    :D

    There's nothing wrong with pictures of yachts with women on them!

    Pictures weren't permitted therefore I won't identify the boat, but to the best of my knowledge this is an absolute first in yachting... a dedicated snowski locker!

    Again, I won't identify the boat, but I bet some our spotters can. Standing on the main stateroom's deployable beachside terrace, I got a shot that I appropriately titled... Reflections. Probably the closest I'll ever come to a Tom Serio shot.

    So, we have snow skis and reflections. How about some opinions of FLIBS. What did you see. Was there anything exciting? Anything that surprised you? Was the traffic high or low or average? What were your thoughts as you left the show? Did any builder surprise you with a new direction?
