    Any YF members planning on going to the Annapolis PowerBoat Show Oct. 15 - 18?

    Any reports on how the Annapolis Sailboat Show went?

    Would appreciate YFers dropping by to put faces behind monikers. I'll be onboard Bering 55 on C Dock called Anjumal.

    Just returned from the Annapolis Powerboat Show. The weather was rainy and freezing cold the entire time. The good news was that it kept the looky-loos and gawkers away. There were a surprising number of brave souls. Not sure if it was the bravery or the foul weather gear that gave them away as serious boaters, but there were serious clients. Didn't hear any of the doom and gloom nor wait-and-see of the previous shows - didn't hear economy or 201k mentioned once.

    Maybe we've turned the corner! :D
