Rescheduled to October—that does NOT help me!

I'm guessing they'll still extend the boat show deals?

Considering the stock market decline, lost wages and the diminished income of the self employed, I'd bet boat dealers have a pessimistic outlook for sales this year.

Throw in a boat show cancellation or three and we now have a buyer's market.

Drive a hard bargain and hope the dealer has missed your "eager buyer" threads here.

Meh. I ate out twice today, and both places were empty. Bertucci's had one server during lunch (on a Friday!) and a Chinese restaurant tonight had the same (no buffet, sadly).

I tipped both servers $20. Some people are gonna get crushed through this, and I'm fortunate enough to not have to worry about it, so I won't be busting my local dealer.
