With boat show season upon us, and boat sales down significantly this year due to the economy, perhaps it shouldn’t be a surprise that most manufacturers are helping dealers move boats by offering some pretty impressive incentives for boat show shoppers. From Malibu and Mastercraft on down to Supra, almost all of the major players are offering free options, cash back, or a combination of the two.

Compared to years past, where demand outpaced supply, this is definitely a different landscape for those purchasing boats, and for those that have the means, there has never been a better time to buy a new boat.

Read on for a full summary of what’s on the table if you buy a new boat during a 2009 boat show.

After releasing the details on their new for 2009 Launch 21V wakeboard boat, Supra has pulled the wraps off their new website for next year, which features specs, images, and video of their entirely v-drive model lineup for 2009.

In addition to a rich media experience, which includes video clips of Supra’s pro team talking about each boat’s features, the new website also includes a boat building tool that allows you to customize and price all of Supra’s models.

Supra continues to improve not only their product, but also their marketing and promotions, creating an even more attractive experience for potential Supra owners. If you’ve been thinking about a new boat and Supra is on your list, head over to www.supraboats.com for more information.
