ChrisB Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 I have just seen that the 2018 London Boat Show will last a whole five days! Wed 10th to Sun 14th January 2018. And be combined with two other shows. Is it going to be worth anyone's while transporting boats to Excel for five days? I think the writing is on the wall for London now and most builders will just do Southampton. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would go every year when I lived at Bledlow in the Chilterns. However Beale Park on the A329 just south of Streatley and Goring and a handful of miles north of Reading is not really London. I can't see a Grand Banks motor yacht or even the smallest Oyster getting along the A329 and in the entrance ti Beale. Joking aside Beale is a must for the open boat sailor and dinghy cruiser.

Matt Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 We have been the Beale a few times. Plan on going again this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilB Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 I wonder if Princess and Sunseeker will be so keen to have such large stands for just 5 days. I also wonder if the fees have been halved like the duration, I should find out soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
