Tulsa Boat Show | YogisDen.us

I went to the Tulsa Boat Show on a rainy day last weekend and here he is what I saw.

Lots of personal watercraft on display. I’ve never been on one of these and I think it would be a blast. I know people who cannot afford boats buy these things now. They are the size of a small boat.

I loved the color of this boat.

Our sheriff’s department brought one of their boats. I think riding in one of these would also be fun.

There were a couple of vintage wooden boats on display, not for sale. This is a 1959 Riva Ariston built in Italy. It is named Bella Vita which means “Beautiful Life.”

I cannot imagine putting it in the water. It is number 219 of 1021 built.

This is a 1955 Chris Craft Cobra 21′. It’s also gorgeous. Number 18 of only 56 built.

And back to boats for sale. They had a bunch of pontoon boats. My in-laws had one and it was fun.

And bass boats. I saw one for $91,000. I bought a used bass boat when I lived near a lake in Texas back in the day. It was used and I think I paid like $400 and sold it back to the guy I bought it from for $400. The two happiest days of my life were the day I bought and the day I sold it.

Lots of little light weight travel trailers. I love the retro design of this one. It had the door at the back.

This was probably the most popular trailer. I had to stand in place for a while before traffic cleared out so I could take a photo. A trailer with a back deck and loft sleeping areas. It also is a rear entry.

The interior is cool.

Here’s another two story trailer but not near as nice. So I guess the kids sleep up top to give mom and dad a little privacy?

And some RV’s. Here is a truck conversion.

And here is a deluxe version.

They had four wheelers for sale.

And two wheelers.

Anyway, it was a nice day to spend a rainy couple of hours. I don’t buy anything, I just like looking.

I am linking with My Corner of the World. Go check it out!!

Saturday, I dropped the kid off at his Improv class and headed over to the Tulsa Boat Show. Logan and his mother hate the boat show so if I want to go I have to go when I can.

And I found some boats. I loved this tri hull pontoon boat. Pontoon boats make for a lot of room and a smooth ride. They are not too sexy though.

The dealers had their big boats there also. Yes, there are lots of these, and bigger, on Oklahoma lakes. I think the boats are bigger than the lakes just between you and me.

Once I have paid the fee to get in, I have never bought anything at the boat show. Nothing, not even food (it is kind of like fair food.) Still it is fun seeing what is for sale. I would like some property where I could tool around in a four wheeler like the above.

They had an amphibious car, or maybe it is an amphibious boat. A car that get in water.

It has a most manly instrument panel don’t you think.

A Dobbertin Hydrocar.

Here is a video from four or five years ago. Yes, it can go pretty good but never gets up on plane. It just plows through the water.

And they had some Indian Motorcycles. I’ll take red please. They are beautiful.

They also had some funky powered assist bicycles. They can go up to 25 miles per hear I heard a salesman tellsomebody.

Weapons are extra.

I’m a sucker for old woonden power boats. They are just so cool. This is an Aristo Craft, 1956 model. $16,000 bucks and it is yours.

I think that would is beautiful.

there are lots of trailers at the show also. They get fancier ever year. This one has a rear deck. You have to provide your own kids though. Maybe next year they will have them with kids. Stay tuned.
