I was at the Dayton Boat Show (Ohio), and Rick James dealership had a lot of beautiful Champs there!I talked with Todd Dreysse, and he was a real nice guy. It's always fun to go the boat shows and dream.

It's a catch 22. Very expensive to display boats. Folks want to see them at the shows...but if they just kick tires, then dealer has spent a bunch for naught. And vice-versa...don't display and, unless they come to dealer showroom, folks don't see the various models...
Danged if ya do, danged if ya don't!![]()
No pics? A coupla videos at the show on what the boats will do should turn a few minds. Whether it will turn their wallets open in this economy is a relevant but another topic.
I heard they paid around $7000 for their booth area.![]()
That is about right on the price for the booth. I work the show every year as it is family who runs the overall show at Dayton. This year we are planning a tackle town, and bringing back the seminars.
If anyone knows some tackle reps or companies that would want a free booth space for tackle town let me know. As the booths for the tackle town will be FREE!
Todd is a great guy. I met him when I got my 198......he knows bassboats![]()
