London Boat Show 2004
Just a few pictures from the boat show for those who might be interested

MeMe couldn't get there, so here are some pictures for him of the new Zodiac Medline which looks very swish, complete with cigar lighter and Baileys warmer. This will still probably require the correct water adhesion coefficient to perform to its best.

That is one stunning looking engine, is it the new V.V.T. model. Didn't get to see it at the show.

Strange, considering you spent one hour ten minutes on the Suzuki stand I seem to recall. Obviously too busy eyeing up the Suzuki hostesses!
