Too much Miami?

Article Abstract:

Two relatively small marine equipment makers which exhibited their products at the Miami International Boat Show in Florida have called for changes in exhibition days and hours. Hialeah, FL-based fishing gear manufacturer Biscay Rod Mfg Co and Fort Lauderdale, FL-based sanitation devices maker Headhunter Inc extolled the Miami exposition but noted that its seven-day period and length of exhibition hours, which could run to 11 hours on some days, were too long.
