The 47th annual Fort Lauderdale Boat Show opened Thursday, November 5 with Special Preview Day. Attendance was at lower levels than previous years due to Hurricane Wilma forcing rescheduling of the show one week late and a day short. However, enough serious buyers were around to stimulate activity on the boats presented.
Captain-Net web site design clients were out in force this year. New at the Boat Show is Ardell Yacht and Ship, Classic Yacht Refinishing, Mike Sharp of Ardell Yachts with LargeYachtForSale.com, and Mike Thixton, a Coldwell Banker agent specializing in deepwater dockage homes for mega yachts.
