Seawork 2011, alternative to RIBEX?

Can I draw everyone's notice to the Seawork 2011 Exhibition in Southampton on the 14 -16 June.
Last year there was 15 Rib's on the water, availible to look over & try out. Agreed they are more of the commercial end but the likes of RIBcraft were there.

It also has a very big advantage, its FREE!!

I realy like Seawork, and try to go every year.

The Ribs and other boats on show are more my style, as there is not a White seat or length of Blue piping in sight.

The commercial Diving part of the show is also very intresting.

Yup Seaworks gets my vote as well.

Free entry, free parking and the only downside is its mid-week!

It's the only show I get to go to by myself, as the kids are at school.
