Strong Boat Sales Expected at the Austin Boat Show

Tuesday January 13, 2009

According to an article in the Austin Business Journal, boat dealers in Austin, TX are expecting a decent turnout at the boat show January 15 - 18 despite economic woes and cuts in boat production. "Jennifer McKinney, event manager for the show, said local dealers experienced a decline in sales in October and November, but saw a resurgence in December. She said the just-finished Houston Boat Show was successful—and that bodes well for the local show."

For more information about the Austin Boat Show, or to find a boat show near you, see the Boat Show Calendar. Boat shows are a great way for boaters to shop for new boats, or just engage in the hobby they love from land.

It was great, I met the best salesman named Cory Webster. The show had everything I could have dreamed for and I bought a Baja from Cory.
