Actually the only real benefit to their deal is the mailspeed voucher and free delivery. The free kids places and free show guide are already included in the price and Mailspeed are charging the full list price

If however you are a Pratical Boat Owner reader then they are doing a buy one get one 1/2 price offer. You can get these online via the boat show website and as all PBO readers will know if you add the offer code PBO you can buy using this offer

All the best

Andrew

Went today saw the new avon hull looks good very solid, hull was built in france.Highlight was definately two races as co pilot in a Thundercat.I think Barnet Marine had the best stand,Although the RNLI Atlantic was very impresive

The huge marque they have had over the past several years is no longer their.As a result there are fewer stands and fitted into smaller area.This may not be a bad thing but it would depend on what you want to see.They had that aluminium hulled rib 5.5 with the three hydrolic wheels making it amfibious very well put together but at a price of 33,000 if i remember right .They have sold 20 in the UK aparently.I have been for the last 4 years and found it the best for me not crowded at all and time to speak to the dealers on the stands.Racing in the Thundercats(Zapcats)as co pilot is a must ,anyone can. Really made my day.All the outboard manufacturers had out a good display saw and spoke about the Evinrude Ho Etec sounds great idea all that extra power.It was worth it for me but if nothing i,ve mentioned interests you i,ve been of no help.If you go have fun
