Well, I have to say that despite all the doom and gloom on this thread, I really enjoyed the show. I thought that the main stage was a good idea and I met up with loads of old friends as I wandered round the stands. It's not as good as the dinghy show, if that's your sole interest, however I had a very nice day-out. Especially nice to meet up with Biff and Amy working on the Yachts and Yachting stand,
Cheers, Nigel |

The boat show has always been rubbish, the only entertaining thing is always spotting those who put on their deck shoes and oilies to visit central London! I can even get a little bored by the Dinghy Show nowadays especially now there's so little windsurfing stuff. Flip did I just agree with G.R.F.? |

The shows is what it is - I went and met the people I wanted to see and had a good day ... The Dinghy Show is of course the daddy ... |

I like the way that as a member of the Y+Y staff you agree that plastic boats are like Washing up bowls. You should be trying to promote them and get people into sailing and not diss them. But I am sure you have to agree, to sail a REAL boat, it has to be made of either wood, or fibreglass! |

Nowhere in my Y&Y contract does it say I have to like plastic boats! And I am very keen to get people sailing....I find that taking a newbie crew out means I have an excuse to come last, heh heh.
Despite loving wooden boats, I don't really mind plastic - I just want to see some COLOUR!! That was my main gripe. |
