Yes, I plan to attend.. I'm currently in the market for a 36 open older model (2000-2005) there is one in Jupiter that a broker has that I will be taking a look at. I was at the Tampa Boat Show in September and had a chance to see the 35 Convertible very nice, but I have to wait until they hit the used (pre-owned) market. You just take to much of a financial hit when you purchase new. At least that has been my experienced.

The Ft. Lauderdale show is impressive.. I think it's better than the Miami show. Hopefully, Luhrs will step up to the plate and have a hospitality tent around threre vessels, offering free beer !!!LOL.

See you all there.

I don't know about the beer tent - but if we cross paths, we can talk boats over a cold one... :cheers2:

I will definetly be around the Luhrs area since I am looking to purchase a vessel in the next 6 months or so. Will be looking at other manufacture's but the Luhrs is one of my top choices. It's a buyers market! with fuel prices high, high marina slip prices, and a few other factors.. dealer's are calling me pretty regurlaly.

Take care and good seas.

:blink:Why no 41 convertibles?

[Islandfly]

I am not quite sure if the convertible is a good mix for us. I do part time fishing charter work (offshore), along with sunset cruises, dolphin tours, etc. Most of my customers prefer beign out in the open, they don't want to be inside the cabin. Will also be using the vessel for our family and we all prefer to stay out on the open areas. Cabin time is for napping or night time, so I feel we would get better use of an open vessel vs. a convetible. But I do have to say we spent sometime on the new 35 convertible at the Tampa Boat Show (September) impressive.... to say the least.

Good seas!

Islandfly,

You ought to look at the 41-Open also. It gets you a lot higher to spot the dolphins. Plenty of room for people to sit outside.

Just a thought.
