Good evening,

I'll spend a few weeks in Florida (area of Port St-Lucie-Miami first and
Naples-Sarasota second) in January. I'd like to know if there is any place
or boat show specialised in used boats, specifically catamarans.

Also, is there somewhere a big outlet store for parts and gadgets, a "must
see" flea market (or at least WalMart type) for boaters ?

I often hear about people finding some great boats for 20K or less who need
only some TLC. When it's my turn to search, I only seem to find expensive
boats. I wonder what I'm doing wrong...

Thanks !

Bryan

Too bad you're not here now.  Big St Pete power and sailboat show this weekend.

There is also a boat show in Stuart in January that you will want to attend.

If you want a great Flea Market, look at Sailorman.  You can spend a
whole day ogling their good stuff.  Google the word Sailorman and you
will get their website.
Their address is:
Address:

350 SE 24th St. (aka State Road 84)
Ft. Lauderdale, FL  33316

Sailorman's waypoints: 26.05.55 N, 80.08.36 W
