I was just wondering, Can you get a better deal at a boat show, or is it better to deal at dealership? I am looking for a new boat, and was wondering where you might find the best deal? thanks
Some dealers have a special at boat shows. I got a heck of a deal on mine at a show, but that was what the dealer was willing to do.

Shop around but know what you want before you buy one! Cabela's has a trade in program. Just beware and think everything through!

what are you thinking of buying?
I used to be a dealer "years ago". Back then there was a big incentive to sell at the show. Sometimes the manufacturers will work with the dealers on pricing at the show. Most of the shows are in the winter time as well.....another good reason for the dealer to be aggressive. As Dawgg said "know what you want and be sure". Know what you want an go for it! Good luck and tight lines

i like the Alumacraft MV 1756 SC it looks like a nice boat for river and creeks, and runs across large water to get to them. Do you have other suggestions I could look at?

Don't buy a boat that isn't exactly what you want just because the price is a good deal
I have spent most my life fishing........the rest I wasted.

Saved about $1000 off price of a new carolina skiff at the show in Raleigh. Dealer actually told me to wait a week until the show and come see him there. They did not have the color I wanted so had to order it, but gave me boat show price.
