INTERNATIONAL MODEL BOAT SHOW

we turned up at about 12 by time we drove down. left later than intended. My son enjoyed himself and I am not in the process of deciding what to build for him. My wife even purchased and want to do one of the little huntsman hulls from speedline and I bought one too.

I found which dealers were going to be there and ordered my batteries and other items on the internet with them before the show and just pick them up whilst there. Ps have you tried the sausage baps there yummy.

INTERNATIONAL MODEL BOAT SHOW

I was about the 5th person in on Friday morning. I had a shopping list that included one of speedline little huntsman. Got all I wanted in the first hour although nearly half of that was queueing up at a certain battery stand. Their stock was running low then so heaven only knows what would have been there by Sunday. As others have said layout almost identical as 2 years ago( last time I went) which helps when you are looking for things but otherwise there was nothing much new. Pity some of the bigger suppliers have pulled out over the last couple of years

Yes I know what you guys mean, it was a bit of the same and has the potential to be so much more . We found on Saturday that many traders we're out of certain stock so I hate to think how little was left Sunday 😟
Still I have to admit to enjoying the events of the day & Comradery .

Maybe some ideas could be put forwards to the organisers to give it back the wow factor .

I attended on Sunday 9th November, it was the third time I have been. Fewer people this year, and the layout was the same as previous year. I think the organisers should re arrange the layout to give it more of a variety. You notice the same stands and people in the same positions every year. This was the last time I shall be visiting any of the shows.

I attended on Friday 7th. The show and catering was first class. Compared to last year it was exactly the same in format and with the same traders, a few less than last year, with many of the displays I saw last year, so I see little point in attending again next year.

Once again a brilliant show and plenty of trade stands. There was also a lot of fireboats with all their different interpreditions. Which make it very interesting.

Excellent day, as usual. Met a couple of friends off the Mayhem site. Bought a nice new huntress. Learned a few tips for model building. Can't wait for next year
