Hey All - Can we get an ADT (About Dayum Time)??? <-- haha!

All jokes aside, it's official! Team LUXE & our 33’ ChaseToon will be at the LA Boat Show | Bart Hall Boat Show Jan 20-22, 2023 located @fairplex in Pomona, CA. Our booth will be in the High Performance Powerboat Hall & will most likely be the only Pontoon Manufacturer in the building so we can’t be missed. This will be our first public event & would love show you what you’ve been patiently waiting to see. We will also have some other surprises at the booth so make sure to add us to your 2023 calendar & hopefully we’ll see you next month!

With these dates I think that we will be there this year. Maybe looking at the brands once more to see where pricing and lead times are.

I haven't been to the LA boat show since my father passed away. We would fly down for the day and cover as much as we could. I'll put it on my list.👍👍

As Biden would say, " I got two words for you, High and Long!
@satellitemike LOL!

Very true but I think LUXE's 33' ChaseToon is going to "shake things up" in the SportToon Industry especially if you evaluate: Cost | Quality | Timeframe. I mean... 33ft, center console sport Tritoon w/ dual mercs, epic sound system, woodless float, seats 12 large adults, all completely custom designed to preference? The starting @price is $239k w/a (starting@) 3 month build timeframe. <-- All things consider, that's the deal of deals 🔥🔥🔥

Yesterday I sent an email to the 'Bart Hall Boat Show' contact page asking if they were going to post a confirmed exhibitors list on the website before the show. So far, no response, but I'm patient. It appears that the show is scheduled to occupy three buildings at the Fairplex. That's small when you compare it to the old 'Spring Boat Show' that SCMA used to do about 15 years ago (occupying five buildings plus outdoor displays). Hope it delivers good results for those who are exhibiting.

How is the water testing going? What do speeds look like vs similar length toons?

That is a good point of it is small with limited manufacturers It might be best to skip it.

Maybe we should all contact our manufactures and ask if they are going?

Here's what my sources are telling me..
Luxe is in,
Eliminator is in,
Cobra is in,
Barron is in,
DCB is out.
Advantage is a maybe.
Thats it.. all I got.

I will say 3 buildings sounds a little underwhelming. 1 building for pontoons and production boats? 1 building for performance boats. 1 building for wake tractors and accessories?

I went last year and Shockwave & Nordic were there as well as Interceptor. My group came away really impressed by Interceptors bang for the buck. I saw my first Eliminator X Flight and spent a lot of time staring at that hull trying to get my head round its look. Went aboard and folks were blown away at its great layout. Its a hoot if ya just wanna kick some glass, drink expensive Coors Light and walk about a while. Something to do.... but for those outside OC & IE I wouldn't recommend. Its a very small if you're driving a long way.

Eliminator has a X Flight? You sure it wasn’t a Advantage. See link below.

You're right... shows what I know. It was definitely an X Flight 29' [I think] My buddy was squirting all over that crazy looking thing ha

Sorry guys... I literally found out about it when @Luxe posted on his social media... I would have done it if we had known sooner. Also, a bit bummed with the lack of advertising about the show returning. We are taking two boats to the Miami Boat Show and with logistics, it is about a week and a half after the show to start prepping and shipping the boats east. I will do it for sure next year unless Commiefornia decides to shut things down again. I may come up to check things out personally.

We will be in full force with an awesome display in April at the Havasu Boat Show.

Damn. Any cool pics you can share of what you’ve recently completed or is coming down the pipe for those of us that don’t have social media? Anything new for 23?

I don't think you are still selling Nautiques, but do you have connections to know if there will be a Nautique dealer at this? The PDX boat show is next week, and I am wanting to shop pricing.

Happy New Year to you and the crew!

I think I saw the writing on the wall for this show, late thought maybe to make happen. Unfortunately seems like a lack of effort in contacting or following up with exhibitors and definitely a lack of advertising. As enthusiasts, we all know what DCB brings to the table, and I feel comfortable saying for all of the inmates that we always look forward to seeing your craftsmanship and professionalism. The show will miss having you there. But respectfully, I wouldn't change what you are doing. It takes a lot for manufactures to plan and coordinate efforts to attend, and its not cheap. Just having a plan on what to build and bring would push my buttons.

I wish I could catch ya sooner, but look forward to seeing you in Havasu in April.

My goodness Tony.... am I looking at stereo speakers mounted on your stern stairway to heaven? My goodness.... is that a first? Can't recall that beautiful feature anywhere prior....
Yes sir. We made sure when tooling the boat that a 6.5 inch speakers would fit. Most others mount them under hatches and they are in the way when closed or open. We flush mount and have a nice set of billet grills made. This was done on a 37 last year and most new ones are wanting this option. Super cool when you're swimming and floating behind the boat.
