Lots of nice toys. I actually made a purchase of one of the few things there I could afford.
Cold beer.  _________________

It was okay. Would like to have seen more of the custom builders and smaller shops. Mostly went to hang out with the Mosca clan. Enjoyed hanging out with Cesar and Lucy for awhile over at the Mosca area. They are good people. The shenanigans at the municipal boat ramp all day was hilarious. It's a wonder the Coast Guard doesn't stay more busy than they do. The tall blonde at GCM's tent was a sight for sore eyes... . She was cute...and did I mention tall? And blonde??? Hehehe... |

| Oh yes! Gotta love them tall blondes! I was a vendor there and was a little disappointed in the size of the show and the turnout. There weren't enough food booths or vendor booths sold either. |

My dad was working so went visit.took the old lady just to Get out of the house. Could have had alot more but had a good time.took her on her first boat ride which I kinda made her go on. Rude! Hell no, she can eat the fish I catch she can ride on a boat with me. She ended up buying some 40$ sandals pay back for the boat ride I assume but we had fun. I heard there was a new Toyota boat out there but didn't get to see it in action. _________________ Been fishing since I was knee high to a grasshopper

| My oldest son and I went Thursday after closing down Roy's. We got to drink a couple of cold beers while looking at really nice toys. I only counted three marine dealers and the Mosca folks, so maybe more next year. Cesar's story was pretty cool. Couldn't get what he wanted from boats he could buy, so he started making them himself. It was nice that we just walked in for free. They charged $7.00 a head on Saturday, didn't they? |

IMO it was a total joke you could see 90% of the boat that where there at the two boat dealers here in cc. Every one I talked to that had stuff for sale at the show said they would not be coming back to corpus boat shows any more this one was the last draw.
But there was some tall good looking blondes maybe that why I did see much of anything else  |
