Anyone going? Going to be a few good debuts, including the new Hinkley 42 =) Also, Ron Holland will be there to talk about his latest 250ft single masted "Yacht". I hear you can get one for $50 Million USD.

Be nice to see some new Canadains there.

We won't make it as far as Annapolis, but we will be attending Norwalk (CT) this weekend. I looked at the the list of exhibitors in Norwalk & saw you CL folks weren't listed. I'm not all that surprised, but it would have been nice to see someone in the flesh!

My brother and I may be going. We've talked about going for years and this looks like the year. Sort of a "guys weekend". Oyster, Swan, Walley, and many other beautiful European yachts that we just don't see up here are displayed.

It's an awsome show in size. For example; I understand the electronics building is about the same size as the entire Toronto Boat Show.

If your a sailor, Annapolis is worth seeing even without the show. All sorts of nautical things to see.

$50 million for a boat though? There are winches on that boat that cost more than my Sandpiper. Dollar for dollar Shortwave is the way to go.

Amen brother D'Arcy! Some say that the use a sailboat gets is in reverse proportion to it's cost.
