Boat trader magazine seems thinner than usual of late. My guess is a retail advertisers are cutting back.

I think they are. Boating really took a double hit these last 12 months. First, fuel prices went out of sight, then the economic meltdown.

Even in super rich areas of Florida and California, people are trying to bail out of their boats. For many, it is definitely in the "extra nice to have once I pay the bills" category.
