I too am at the show, I can't see where a 39 was ever worth twice the $439K. In 2006 I could have bought a two year old 39 for about$360K. I passed as it seemed overpriced. Maybe*some higher priced vessels are showing their real value - what the market will bear. Nordhavns are falling off too.

I want to thank Jeff and his wife for having the get together.* It was great to put faces with names, and to see some of the faces again.* If there are members in the Seattle area and what to get together let me know.**

A good time was had by all.* It was short* (about 1.5hrs) and sweet* (lot's of sugary treats available). I was able to get enough boat show tickets, that everyone that wanted one got one too.

It was good to meet a few new folks, and put names to faces, and too see some old friends too.* Unfortunately, I have forgotten some of the names (screen names or otherwise), so perhaps folks can chime in and tell us how their day went.*

So, thanks for coming, we will have to do it again sometime.............Arctic Traveller
