I am delivering a load of boats to Diamond Marine in East Haven CT.
They will be taken to the Norwalk CT boat show as soon as they get unloaded.
The show starts next Thursday and runs through the weekend.
I'll post more when I know more.

I went to the Clinton Ct. boat show a month or so ago and they had new Checks there. I think they are from the same dealer.

Hey CPR-7, is that the Charleston Boat Show at the Convention Center in N. Charleston January 25? I didn't see The Boat Dock Marine Group (unless the dealer is another name) on the list as of now, but I know those lists are not necessarily up to date. I may have to talk to Richard and see if he needs any help that weekend. You haven't said exactly what business you were in, but are you coming?

Just got word today that the Boat Dock Marine Group will be displaying Checkmates at the Charlotte, Raleigh, and Greensboro shows in North Carolina, the Richmond VA show, as well as the shows in Columbia and Charleston SC.I just delivered the boats to these guys this week. It was 80 degrees there, I didn't want to leave.:sssh:
Coop- you should have stopped by Lake Norman for a boat ride!

Yep, it was 82-84 all week here. Too bad I never got to take the boat out. Mine hasn't been out since July 4th. That's sad.

Checkmates at a boat show in NC? It's been a long time since there's been any around here - looking forward to the show. :banana:

Yep, Boat Dock Marine Group took delivery of their first 4 'Mates: 2000 Pulsare BR with 150 HO Etec, 2100 Pulsare BR with 225 HO Etec, 2400 Pulsare Long Deck with the new 250 HO Etec, and a Z-23 Bowrider with a 350 Mag. The first two boats are at their store on High Rock Lake, the second two are at the Lake Norman Boat Dock store. Dave Greenamyer from BDMG confirmed that the boats will be shown at Charlotte, Ralieigh, and the second Greensboro show in NC. As far as SC goes, they are still working out the details with a partner dealer to show the boats in Coumbia and Charleston.

climbed all over it!!
was an awesome boat! the only thing i noticed was that when entering the cuddy, the door opening versus the step position going in was not that easy to manuver. had to step so far in that i would hit my head above.
but other than that. great looking setup. good graphics and nice rigging!!

That has been that way forever. The gas tank fill hose is under the cabinet. The only way to fix it would be to move it to under rear seat. But then no room for batteries. We will have to work on that one. Alan
Awsome looking 30' Coop/Alan. The new graphics are starting to grow on me. Any interior shots? It's good to see Cmate back at the Chicago Boat Show.

Sorry Shannon maybe I can get some if it comes back. This one does have a microwave & refrigerater in it. I think the next one is going to be outboards like yours but not for sure. Alan
