Used to attend every year for something to do in the winter. No point in going back. The show gets smaller and smaller every year. Not work the cost of the train and attendance. Years back the LIRR had a boat show package which combined the LIRR fare and the boat show ticked and you saved a few $$. That was stopped a few years ago.
Agree with Holty above. Lots of go fast overpriced 4 and five outboard powered boats. Very few vendors.

Waste of time for any fishing boater . . . jmo.
"Luck" is when preparation meets opportunity.
I prefer fishing evolution to fishing extinction.
If ya want to clean up the water, ya gotta get the pigs out of the creek.

Well I guess, I will tell the wife I'm going and go out drinking locally with friends. Saves some money and gives me 2 additional hours of hanging out. Save the $ for some of the local fishing shows coming up.

As Lep has pointed out Matt you are caught in the vortex. First, he convinces you to invest in the latest and greatest tackle. Then you have to come fish with me to test it out. A vicious cycle!!😱

When I first started Noreast in 1989, that show was all 3 floors at Javits. It was packed with everything for the saltwater angler/boater.
That sure has changed.

Remember the old show at the NY Coliseum at Columbus Circle? The building was packed with products and people.
More empty space now at the Javits than display space. Not worth it anymore
The COVID restrictions don't help either. I don't want to deal with all the mask requirements in NY City either.
