London Boat Show

[Cariadco]

Just spent all of yesterday, traipsing 'round the Boat show.
It was fairly quiet, but not as quiet as it was on Monday, due to the Underground strike (according to many of the exhibitors).
However, we had a great day. Everyone was friendly, chatty and well, glad to talk to someone!!
There seemed to be much less Sailing Boats on show, lots more Power though. The Electronics was weak as was the Engine suppliers.
Even the Bar was quiet...! Didn't have to Queue at all!!
Anybody else have similar views??

Well covered (from different perspectives) on long threads on the other 3 main fora.

I was there Monday tube strike day. It felt mire of a motor boat show than a sailing boat show, with just a few leading brands showing.

Despite living in London, I probably wouldn't have gone but had free entry thanks to the RYA. If I'd have paid, I'd have felt ripped off.
