My wife and I went yesterday (I hate going to ANY city) but the drive in was uneventful and the boats were gorgeous! Security was easy-peasy (left my weapons at home) and the marina we use had “will call” tickets waiting for us.
Not crowded at all on a Wednesday (quite slow, actually)
Drooled heavily over some of the “pilot house” and other “cuddy” boats geared for fishing like the Eastern and the Parker...which my wife and I are leaning towards switching from a Tritoon to. Will probably try to search for something a few years older that has taken the depreciation hit though.
Boats are EXPENSIVE!

This is probably the best month to go into Boston. Everyone has gone on vacation.

The Miami show starts in a couple of days. Comparatively, the Boston show is pretty small. If you check out some of the in water boats at the Miami show, the boats in Boston suddenly seem pretty reasonable. However, I agree about depreciation. Bought lots of boats, always used. Same with cars.
