    Do you mean "this is sad?" The current economy is a bite for many dealers. It isn't Champion. A dealer has to make a decision on whether or not to spend the money to bring boats to a show and spend the time away from his dealership....

    We all have to make tough decisions at this point....

    At some shows you may only bring (current) boats to the show, we took that champ hoping to sell it at the show due to the great price on it. Not alot of people buying fiberglass bass boats right now, hopefully things will pick up.we were there everyday, things are just slow right now. Anglers Marine

    I know it's a long way, but the Bimingham, Ala show will have a lot of Champs.

    I know Rich it is sad, But the fact remains Michigan's economy is BAD.

    We took one boat, with a stellar price, COST and listed all our others at COST......still NO TAKERS!

    Aluminum we sold, the crestliners moved, with mercs and E-tecs but bassboats
    got so little play it was scary......

    part of the problem here is for the literal COST of a bass boat you could buy 2 foreclosed homes and in a couple of years make some good money.

    The new ones cost more than most peoples homes here....... oh ya and the -1deg temps dont help this time of year either
