Boat show success

LAST week’s edition of the Palma International Boat Show was another resounding success.

Up to 96 per cent of exhibitors have already expressed their desire to return next year accord ‐ing to organisers, who al‐so reveal that atten ‐dance equalled last year’s figures with more than 32,000 visitors passing through the fair over the weekend.

“Palma International Boat Show has become an essential commercial event for the nautical companies involved, as can be seen from the fig ‐ures of the survey car ‐ried out by the organis ‐ers among the exhibitors,” declared a press release published by the organisation.

“This high rate of loyal‐ty is proof of the success of the event that closed its doors last Sunday in Palma’s Moll Vell.”

This year’s show fea ‐tured 271 participating companies and more than 600 boats on dis ‐play, in a fairground of more than 81,000 square meters.

Environmentally friendly boats and nauti ‐cal equipment were also the protagonists, as well as innovation in the nau ‐tical sector thanks to the Yachting Ventures Inno ‐vation Corner.

The fair also once again hosted the Palma Superyacht Village, a section specially de ‐signed for boats over 24 metres in length, as well as an area specialising in boat repair and mainte ‐nance.
