I'm heading to the Annapolis boat show on Friday to look for deals on a new AC and Trim tabs. Just wondering if anyone else was going?

i'm on the ENTERPRISE now as it type this and yes, i'm going to annapolis tomorrow, thursday, vip day. believe it or not, i've made it every year for the past 42 years. 1972 was the first year. we had bubala 3, our freshly delivered 1972 f-36 trojan tri cabin, and it was also the year that hatteras showed off the queen of the show, the hatteras 70' motor yacht, then, the largest all fiberglass yacht. it was also the year that ford was showing off it's 'marine turbine' engine.
last week was baltimore trawler fest, this week annapolis. all while spending several nights onboard the little 'E'.
of course, i will have to partake of my usual tradition of ending the show with a burger from pussers along with a pussers painkiller. this year should be much better than last. i could only stay 2 hrs last year due to less than a month out of chemo/radiation. i was determined to make it last year though, and i did, but it was not my finest hour.
if anyone is going to be in the area, i will be returning to ENTERPRISE for yet another night onboard thursday and maybe friday. so, come on over to parkside and let us fellow trojan owners meetup.

AWAY ON BUSINE$$!! (i have family in toronto and surrounding metro areas although i HATE driving the 401!) you bet i wish we could meet. jet travel can do wonders. (when i was a newbie airline person, i used to fly down to miami from washington dulles for lunch) i have an opportunity as a flight attendant to meet many a fellow trojan owner on my overnights. heck, it would be great to meetup with some of the east coast florida owners on a 23 hr layover in west palm or fort lauderdale. why not? speaking of florida, that would be a wonderful meetup at the lauderdale or miami boat show with the gang.
