If you get your timing correct and know the BA website inside out, BA are offering a 6 day UKL 99.99 return LHR/BWI for ABS 2007. You will either have to pay for or find free accomodation. Boat show entry is free if you have access to a RIB ( /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif )
It's all on the web but you have to work it out for yourselves .... And Guinness is available at $1.35 a bottle otherwise it's a Pusser's Painkiller ....
IMO, the ABS is unique - It puts both Excel and Soton into a shade of their own greedy making.

The answer I am afraid is entirely dependent upon the content of each show. I perosnally think that Earls Court could be succesful if it focussed on the slightly poorer boating brigade who didn't have a £300k bonus to splash out on a new Sunseeker Mega Turbo, very long bonnet, lot's of flashy totty pad type boat. The key thing is for the show to determine its market and differentiate itself from LIBS. I don't go to LIBS because it doesn't cater for what I need, Earls Court just might?

Annapolis....yes but its a sailboat show? and the power show a week later is very regional.
Great show but very limited in some areas.

Re: Which boat show?
I'm really surprised at folk wanting to travel to Earls Court a few weeks before Christmas - you tried London in December?! I used to work around there until 10 years ago, and it was a nightmare then.....

Look, there's nowt wrong with having to kick your way through the tourists outside of Harrods. Extra marks for any you knock over.

Earls Court is hardly central London though... thus not so affected by the manic shopping crusaders....
