They were able to enjoy the splendid display of yachts in the basin with slightly overcast skies keeping the temperature down. Town Square buzzed as the crowd viewed the Minis and BMW cars on display. In the hall Rolls Royce and Aston Martin showed off their top models. Gizmos, gadgets and water sports toys were lined up alongside.



Live 89.5 Radio broadcast live from the show overlooking the boardwalk which was alive with throngs of visitors enjoying the al fresco dining and bars around the water display.

Last night’s Exhibitors Cocktail sponsored by BB&B, Bliss Beach Club, Beluga Vodka and Two Tales Craft Beer gave all a welcome time to relax after a hard day’s work. The tone was upbeat, and it did not rain!
