checkmates at a boat show

I would love to see checkmates at the boat shows. Checkmate should show them or do it togeather with a dealer. Love to see them at the Chicago or Detroit. Boats and gear, there is plenty of check lovers out there that are very proud of there boats. :bounce:I wanna see checkmates!!!!!!!!
 
You better get your butt to Chicago then, 'cause they are going to be there.


They will also be in Cleveland at the IX center.
 
Coop, will these be corporate booths for Checkmate, or will the boats be displayed thru local dealerships?
 
Just got back from the Cleveland Boat Show. Smallblockford (Sandy Beach Marine) had bunch of new mates on the floor. It was a great showing even Doug Smith was there. I am at checkmate owner for a long long time to come

you got one hell of a rig goin on kip will help you and if i can help you let me know i will, dont blame you on not stopping after that but you are going to have a great summer, got cabin fever yet cuz i do
 
Dealer not Factory..

Just wanted to set the record straight.......Roberts Marine has the booth @ the Minneapolis Show. It's listed as Checkmate because we helped him get the space...but Bob @ Roberts is taking his boats and working the show. I'll be @ the show on saturday 26th to help Bob.....believe the former owner is coming with me. I'll also be @ the Cleveland show this saturday 19th giving Jimmy a hand ! KC

dont think any are at detroit show i almost was going to go but just to much to do and to far away. I have all the boats from the show give me a call let me know if you want to swing buy i will be here even this sat. taking sunday off to watch the superbowl. but let me know
 
Yesterday I went to the Pennsylvania Auto & Boat Show in Harrisburg. It's mostly cars but had a nice display of boats. I was surprised and quite pleased to find I now have a local Checkmate dealer. Ducky's Boat Sales in Middletown, PA. They only had 2 Checkmates on display but that was 2 more than I saw last year.
 
I live in Minneapolis and went to the show on Friday. Met the man himself; Bill Combs. Spent about an hour talking with him. What a great experience!!
 
i'm sure i wont be able to head that way before then ,but i will let you know , i got baby boy turnin 1 @ valentines day . n old hick may be up my way this wkend ?
 
I attended the Charlotte boat show today and my local dealer (the Boat Dock) displayed two Mates.....a 2400 (nice but it had a OMC) and a 230BR.
 
Heard the Boat Dock sold the ZT 230 yesterday and plans on replacing it with a 270 BR in a few weeks.

As far as the E-tec 250 HO on the 2400, don't knock it till you try it.....and you don't have to take my word for it, either. Talk to Forrest or Doug at Checkmate, and ask them about their testing results with the E-tec 250 HO running heads up against the Merc 300 on the 2400 Pulsare. You WILL be surprised at what they tell you. I know I was!
