gurge 0 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Yes I am a starter for Friday. Where's the best parking Link to post Share on other sites
gonzo 0 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I'm going, the Jeanneau guys have a huge stand - five nice new sailboats to check out and 13 sail/stinkpots in total! Link to post Share on other sites
Bimini Babe 0 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I thought you'd never ask! We'll be there but no Boat Coat stand unfortunately - just weren't quick enough off the mark for this year's show. But we have wrapped a small sample section which is on the Gurit stand - Pav 1, stand 121. Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 I heard rumours a year or more ago that they were having financial issues. Don't know if there was any truth to them. Link to post Share on other sites
Rats 28 Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Rumor is "mis appropriation " may be as result of financial pressures Link to post Share on other sites
Bimini Babe 0 Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Pretty subdued down there today. Wonder why? Parking not bad at silos. Could be a different story at weekend though. Link to post Share on other sites
philstar 61 Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 went today. a few good deals, got a good pair of sunnies for $20, from a couple of auzzies. Musto has 20% off and Helly Hansen 50% off wet weather gear, slam is there too with some deals. The 2 salonas and the X yacht (x44) look pretty good racer cruisers. the rest are all European cruisers. They had the cheek to park a pig ugly McGregor 26, next to the new Elliot 5.9 which looks gorgeous. Build quality and finish of the e5.9 looks superb better than originally done in the 80's when they were brand new. The j boat looks great, as does the A trailer yacht. Waitangi is there in all her restored glory. Interesting show. Link to post Share on other sites
