The 2011 Phuket International Boat Show (PIMEX), now in its eighth year, is set to be the biggest and best yet and welcome a number of firsts. To be held March 29 to April 1, 2012 at Royal Phuket Marina, Thailand, the Phuket International Boat Show is organised by Informa Yacht Group and expects to welcome 6,000 plus visitors this year.
In the marina-side air-conditioned exhibition hall, over 40 companies will display marine and lifestyle products and services, and in another first for PIMEX, three luxury car brands will be present this year: Jaguar, Lexus and Land Rover. As the number of exhibitors increases year-on-year, so have the size of the boats on display. This year more than 25% of the boats in-the-water are 70 feet or more in length.
