helliconia Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I wouldn't mind dragging the missus and get some payback for hours spent waiting at the beauticians for her! I'll let you know how I go convincing her haha PS I was WAITING there... not getting treatments as anyone who's seen me will confirm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norto Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Yep I'll be there I'm taking the missus too except I don't have to drag her she'll probably beat me there. Looking for a new boat , maybe huey so I might drop in. Norto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishDrought Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 I am sure Elwood Blues & I will be there..... I am not allowed to go by myself anymore as I usually end up throwing a tantrum cause I want all the boats and get removed by security. The missus refuses to take me.... God I can't wait to get another boat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thylacene Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 I can't afford to upgrade the tow vehicle so I'm not taking the wench any where near the boat show, last time she bought a boat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fisherman36 Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 I can't afford to upgrade the tow vehicle so I'm not taking the wench any where near the boat show, last time she bought a boat I was wondering what you were infering.... I was reading this in tapatalk on the iphone and it shows a preview before you open the post. All it showed was... "I can't afford to upgrade the tow vehicle so I'm not taking the wench any where..." Didnt know what you meant by that!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PM79 Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 I want to go but I don't know if all that walking will be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr475 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 The bride and I go most years but find it a bit depressing because we usually end up wandering around one of the $5million jobbies. But at least we can say that they're usually not good for fishing and I don't think a 73 tonne trailer would sit comfortably at my house. I would also need a new towbar.....

Don't know where this came from - Exhibitors don't have to pay for entry - they are allocated a number of passes depending on their requirements, and that may have something to do with the amount of space they have purchased. Either way Huey's crew won't pay for entry like normal punters - unless rules have changed in 2011. Tuffy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Tuffy, it comes from the cost to display at the show, yes we get some free passes but for us to display at the show, or "go to the show" it costs this and sometimes more. Every square metre is $100 and then everything else on top of that. Cheers, Huey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunc333 Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 hope you sold a few huey thats alot of boat sales before you make a $1 or$2 ,saw you and you looked flat out cheers dunc333 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a boat Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Hi Dunc, thanks mate and yes it was busy, but I like talking to people about boats so it was a good busy. The show was better than what I had hoped for and we should do Ok from it but a better indication will be about the time we have to pay for next years show. You get a much better idea of how a boatshow was for you about 6 to 9 months down the track. Cheers, Huey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you sold a lot of boats Huey. It's a lot of work planning and setting up etc, plus organising all your crew to deliver and return the stock from the show, but you have to be there to maintain an advantage. Long days, too, 9 to 9. Feet get tired , don't they. Tuffy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
