Has anyone news or anything of interest at The New England Boat Show this week?

It was pretty busy today. Was at the Miami and New York shows as well, and both were better attended than last year, at least by my observation.

I had to do a quick visit there today and missed it.
I plan to go tomorrow afternoon & will be on the lookout.
The turnout was not heavy.

I've been particularly surprised by the grand stupatoria (master staterooms) in modest power boats.

I thought they were fornicatoria?

I saw only a few boats of interest (passing) a few years ago and haven't been since.
Hard to get a real price to, since most were billed as so and so dollars per month.

Now, I am just looking for a good dinghy.
With no time to build this year, I'll have to settle for what I can find
in a hard shell.

The Landing School had a Beach Pea there. Might have been the only Wooden boat in the building.



stupatoria is Yiddish for that.

That's a nice little boat.
I have been looking at Iain Oughtred's designs for the Humble Bee and Auk to build next winter.
I need a dinghy that will tow well and have to keep it under 11 feet.
Since I don't have the space to carry one on deck, I think one the larger side for stability and messing around.
