Do those girls know you are filming them.

Can’t be a French beach. They’ve all got their clothes on.

The ones in the water were wearing wetsuits

Thanks @Bouba for taking the time to share these pictures from the show. It’s a shame to hear it’s been shrinking over the years and not really worth it anymore. I’ve seen the same trend with the smaller boat shows where I am. Feels like it’s been a steady decline for many years now. At least you can still enjoy walks around those great old harbors and towns!

But the story doesn’t end there....there has, I believe, been more small shows in different locations....for example local to me the boat show has steadily improved....so I think we are seeing a trend...lots of small shows that are great for the locals but not worth traveling to...and the giant shows like Cannes. It’s the in between size....not overwhelming like Cannes....but worth a day out....that are disappearing. At least in my observation
