Xtreme Companies, Inc. (BULLETIN BOARD: XTME) has announced that it is exhibiting at the 29th Annual St. Petersburg Boat Show from November 16 - 19. With over 600 boats on display, the St. Petersburg Boat Show is the largest on

Florida's Gulf Coast. The City of St. Petersburg operates the state's largest marina with 610 slips.

Xtreme CEO Laurie Phillips added, "Exhibiting at the major shows is a critical component of our marketing strategy. Coming off the heels of a successful showing in Ft. Lauderdale, we wanted to continue with our momentum in positioning ourselves within the geographically important Florida market which represents approximately 10% of the total U.S. boat market."

According to online boat publication sailmiami.com, "Florida has overtaken long-time leader Michigan as the state with the nation's most registered boats. Boating's growth is attributed to the Sunshine State's growing population, especially in coastal areas like its long-time boating-sailing capital, the St. Petersburg-Clearwater area."
