Royal Phuket Marina to host international boat show
Friday, May 11, 2007
Thailand’s annual Phuket International Boat Show is relocating to Phuket’s Royal Phuket Marina. PIMEX 2007 will showcase latest boats and equipment at the “luxury lifestyle marina” on December 8-9. Up to 50 boats are expected in the water and on land.
Now in its fifth year, the expo coincides with the annual Phuket King’s Cup international yachting regatta.
Andy Dowden, Show Director for Andaman Marine Consultants, said the move would take the show to “a higher level as Thailand`s premier boating and lifestyle event”.
“Royal Phuket Marina, along with existing and new marinas under construction, are making this beautiful island the hub for sailing and cruising in the region,” he added.
Gulu Lalvani, developer of the new yachting marina, said: “Our `Town Square` at the marina is already well known for spectacular social events and is a fitting centre-piece for the region`s best marine show. I am delighted to welcome PIMEX as part of my dream to cement Phuket as destination of first choice for the marine leisure industry in Asia.”
