Location: Fremont, Wisconsin | I was setting up on wednesday and if you are looking at new boats, this will be the place. The fishing boats are numerous. There are Lunds, Stratos, Skeeter, Polar Kraft, Tuffy, Trackers, Warriors, Sylvans, Crestliners, and others that I know I am misssing. It starts Friday afternoon and runs through sunday. Come on out, it will be a good time to see all the new "rides" in one place in your home town. Exit off of 441 to the west to the second light, its on your north side, cannot miss it.

Location: Menasha, WI | Is this a free event or is there admission? I'd like to come look at boats but I have a problem with paying money to allow people to try and sell me things. |

| Viking, I'm sure there will be an admission. It is usually a couple bucks, I'm not sure of the eaxct cost for this show. Rest assured that the money collected is not to turn a profit for anyone. The admission is used to cover advertising costs and even then the dealers still payout. I can say it'll be cheaper than the WBAY boat show.
Hope to see ya there. |

Location: Fremont, Wisconsin | I feel the same way you do viking. I bet plenty others do as well. But when it is all out in the wash, some of the costs have to be deferred, or there just wouldn't be a show. After all, its not just for the dealers to try to sell you something, its for you to. You get to save gas money from driving from dealer to dealer just to see the boats that may interest you enough to buy them. Then you can put the qualities of each brand up against each other the very same day, and choose which one you may want. Much easier shopping.
