Sanctuary Cove Boat Show 2013 day 1 + Images

Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show 2013 Day 1 William Burton
Boaters are expected to flock in droves this weekend to the 25th International Sanctuary Cove Boat Show. Despite the odd 10 second Queensland shower, weather here has been perfect.

There’s a lot to marvel at this weekend with 327 exhibitors and 114 boats on water. The show will also see the world-wide release of the world’s first solar powered Catamaran and the debut of the Hampton 700 Skylounge to name but a couple.

But non boaters needn’t think there’s anything for them, there’s plenty of entertainment/activities around including Jet Lev’s power packed Jet Pac Display and My Kitchen Rules’ Finalists Jake and Elle.

So slap on some sunscreen and get down here for a great weekend.
