London Boat Show 19.01.2008

[Andre]

I visited the LBS yesterday and spent the whole day wondering round and looking at the exhibits.

what I enjoyed best was the show which followed the FASHION SHOW.
For those who missed it here are a few shots to give an idea what is was about

Everyone seems to be raving about the new Fjord but I reckon it's Emperor's new clothes syndrome - yuch!!!

No! not at all only when you go to a boat show you expect to see boats boats and boats and you take photos of boats boats and boats and post photos of boats boats and boats. Having enjoyed the entertainment show I thought of those who did not see it and would also have enjoyed it probably just like yourself so now you know what you have missed

Didn't make it to the show so hadn't seen it until I followed the link.

It really is ugly isn't it

Looks like a cross between an 8 berth static caravan and one of those cruisers they rent out on the Norfolk Broads for holidays.

What did you think of the XS with the twin Verados?

[ashbypower]

Nice bit of Kit, have not driven one (YET), this was the 850. We demoed the 850 with single 275 V @ southampton show and that was AWESOME. handled very well and gave a good deal of confidence in it. Even SWMBO came out on a couple of runs!!! a world first She only goes on ours if its mirror smooth out there!!!

Thanks Brian, I demo'd the XS850/Single Verado as well and was very impressed.

I'll let you know how the twin performs shortly!
